I have an opportunity to purchase a dump trailer for a good price but I've never heard of this manufacture. Anyone ever heard of Spectre?

Unfortunately they're no longer in business. Maybe that means they were no good or that they could have been too expensive to compete. I guess the dump trailer industry is kinda like the RV industry. LOTS of companies out there coming and going.

Bingo! Ran into the one I had seen at a gas station. Looked pretty stout, guy said it's served its purpose pretty well. Looked just like that one in the picture posted earlier.....

All I got...
