    Just as well the number plate is blacked out otherwise the owner would get the 'dumb bum' award.

    It looks like the hitch came free from the trailer. Not a good idea anyway.

    i've seen a similar setup (but much better) on a P38.

    He had a false floor made in line with the closed tailgate with the mounts... then when using the 5th wheeler opened the top tailgate window and hooked up... was impressive

    No-else had the lateral thinking to come up with the combination of chains, wire rope and timber to give both strength and lightness.

    an oldie has been doing the traps for ages,
    things to note, the timber support for the tailgate, has been carved to a point to fit through the towbar, the S hooks on the flower pot chain holding the tailgate in position.
    Thats about all I can remember, other than the driver was a goose.
