I significantly rebuilt my 50 year old twin axle trailer because it's expensive and hard to find small four wheelers. Smaller trailers are easier to store and mine is the same overall width as my tow car, which is handy (but I couldn't fit my son's Fiat Punto on when it broke down!)
I replaced the suspension, brakes, hubs,wiring, lights, new chequer plate base, new lashing points and some extra metal welded in (and lots of waxoyl). Tows beautifully and I hope that its age and size is a disincentive to the all too common trailer thief. I reckon a modern trailer would have better brakes (it has a single braked axle at this age) but 4 wheel discs on the tow car compensates, and it's only towing an Austin.
