Some bartering, some cash, some sweat......
6 X 10 ft. not including the tongue. I bought Northern Tools torsion axles and a coupler. I bought 3" square tubing at a local steel supplier; some pin head cut three pallets of tubing for a customer ALL of them exactly one inch short! I paid the scrap rate of $.50/lb. If you need 3" square tubing this guy's got a bunch of it.
The wheels are garage sale Ford LTDs, $40 for four. Scrap metal fished from the bins, tires from my buddy's garage, I had to buy them pizza & wings for lunch, a fair swap.
$250. Torsion axles
$30. Coupler
$34. 3 X 3 tubing
$66. Channel iron
~$20 Pizza & wings
$11. Satin Bronze Rustoleum
$5. 1972 Vega taillights
The center will be open and the two 2' sides will be covered. If you have ideas for ramps I'd love to hear it.
I put tie down eyes at each corner and a ring on the tongue to hook a comealong to. Not like my stuff will ever breakdown.....
