There were many uses for those such as generator or director. Hole patterns may tell the story. Likely from Holloman NM. A little overkill for a mule but so what.
Nice Trailer!
Aggravating that the data plate is missing--seems to be some kind of requirement for old stuff--kinda like on old vehicles "All glass MUST be broken-----------------"
Rant Off!
TM 9-881 is the manual for these- got my copy out and oddly enough it shows the M7 from two different angles and each shows a different tongue style. Typo?? -not sure?? Please post more pics when you get them.
If yours is a M17, that would be cool- that's the trailer for the Quad 50cal. Seems like that model had a concave "dish" on the top inside edge of the sides about center of the trailer to allow clearance for the rotation of the quad?
Manual says it should be 4200lbs to 4500lbs so she's 'ell for stout for hauling a mule. Seems like I remember a photo of a Jeep being hauled in one of these. Electric brakes so you can drag it behind your daily driver.
One thing for sure- you're bound to be the only guy at the show with one of these!
I have one of this type trailer (no data plate of course) and have yet to determine just exactly what model it is. I do have the M7 Generator for it --now if only I had the time----------------
