The 2024/03/30 date shown on that photo, is TWO Days ahead of today ( today's date is March 28th).
I knew that Canada was on the metric system, but......is Canada actually on some sort of unique calendar as well?

Maybe he had a spare Flux Capacitor laying around also.

I just took one from Panasonic slogan of decades ago ...'Just slightly ahead of our time'.... and made a 'giant leap for mankind' ??
OK, I finally reset the camera computer. yeah real camera NOT one of them 'smart phones' or 'smart tablets'.
and , yes they are Kubota front tires and rims..... will have another pair next month AND rears as well.....sigh.

What are you using for the axle? Does the trailer have a suspension under it? 3,4,5 leaf springs? Is it ready for the road?

 

[GreensvilleJay]

It has 2000# axle(solid 1-1/4" bar), I cut down to about 32", so tires sit just inside the 48" wide box.
No suspension, off-road use only after all tires are stamped NHS !
It does have new bearings and seals in the hubs.
Hoping someone buys it for 200 Canucks.....

Very Nice job!

Looks real handy for sure.

That's a pretty conservative price. It'd be worth twice that around here and quickly.

Nice job. I don’t believe you could buy those materials in US for that price let alone the labor to put it together. If you deliver for free too, I will buy it for the $148.66…what the hell, it’s Good Friday, round it up to 150 USD and I’ll buy COD, assuming the welds look good (can’t tell from the pics).

 

[GreensvilleJay]

dang,too bad I don't have a passport...gotta be warmer 'south of the 49th' than here !!
it now sports a fancy 3mm aluminum clad panel on the front......
It's be nice if it sold soon, I found the pair of 7000# sleeper springs I 'misplaced' about 6 years ago. Was going to build a tandem tote trailer.......got side tracked when the BX23S came here.....

I am not sure myself how it works, but from the news / media, it sure doesn’t seem like a passport required anymore.

bring that two (or 3 whatever it is) bottom drive way jewelry with you and I’ll buy that too for Another $150.

And down here on the Southern border apparently no passport or ID is required either. And every time I see those greyhound busses headed north, I pray that the bus is headed out of state and to a state or city where I don't care to ever visit. LOL

It's kinda funny (not) that I need passport to cross to get into Buffalo yet million walk in via the 'southern express' route. I remember coming back from Detroit and signed 'customs papers' to bring back a Remington shotgun.... I was 10 or 11 then.
Times have changed....
