AUSEFUL type of trailer designed to carry light but bulky loads, and known as the Lor-Big, is shown in the accompanying illustration. Built by Coventry Motor Mart, Ltd„ Coventry, it will be seen that the trailer has no body, in the true sense of the word, but has a skeleton structure, and, in the ease of the one illustrated, is constructed as a double-decker for the transportation of a large number of pedal cycles.
Actually, the load is comprised of 60 Machines and a 600 c.c. motorcycle, the combined weight being approximately l tons. The unladen weight of the trailer is only 13 cwt., and it is thus particularly suitable for use behind private cars of low horse-power. The capacious nature of the storage space makes it possible to carry a particularly useful load of such merchandise as toys, haberdashery, parcels, etc. In the case of the lastnamed a wire-mesh container is fitted inside.
Provided with bogie wheels and jacks, the price, complete, ready for attachment to a private car or commercial vehicle, is £70.
