Ok so I rescued this trailer from the scrap bin at the dump.  I had plans on making it in 2 a trailer for the ATV

I have been using it as is with flat tires  for yard work and thats what i need it for.

So here is the build

1. new tires/taller
2. clean up/paint
3. double the capacity

now i used parts I have laying around
1 sheet wood 
2 metal
3 paint

parts i need bolts/nuts/washers/wheels/more paint
