Semi Truck Supply Wagon
I made this supply wagon for my planter by salvaging the 20-ft. long van body from a 1965 International cab-over semi-truck. I pull the van with my pickup.

Semi truck supply wagon WAGONS/TRAILERS Conversions 16-5-31 I made this supply wagon for my planter by salvaging the 20-ft. long van body from a 1965 International cab-over semi-truck. I pull the van with my pickup. Works great for hauling seed, herbicide, fertilizer, etc., and makes a nice place to eat lunch out of the wind. I bought an old Ford semi-tractor frame at a salvage yard and cut it up to make a 6-ft. long subframe. The subframe is mounted over a pair of mobile home axles that I narrowed up. I used 2 by 4-in. steel tubing to build a hitch that I bolted under the van's frame. The hitch is the same size as the hitch on my Air Stream travel trailer so I was able to borrow the trailer's load equalizer hitch and sway control. A skylight on top of the van body keeps it well lighted inside. (Richard Gidel, 2950190th SL, Williams, Iowa 50271 ph 515854.2406)
