I bought a used 99 Moritz tandem dual on ebay about 1 1/2 years ago. Thought I got a heck of a deal for 4000. Picked it up in June and spent the entire summer working on it making it just useable. Needed 7 new tires, even though he said all tires were good. 10 ply tires! You know, the ones that run about 200 bucks each. I lucked out, 1 out of the 8 was almost new. The guy told me it had hydraulic brakes. I thought that sounded good. I asked him what kind of hydraulic brakes, he said he wasn't sure, but he pulled it with his 1 ton dodge p/u. Vacuum over hydraulic brakes. No good for my 02 Chevy. Easy fix. Just had to put a 700 dollar electric over hydraulic actuator on it. Not that any of the brakes worked. They were all seized up from sitting, which didn't matter as most of the brake lines were rusted through on the under side. Replaced all the decking on the dovetail as it had NONE. He threw in the lumber for that though. Felt bad because he misrepresented that fact in the ad. Rewired alot of the lights. Welded up the busted up ramps and it still needs paint. Its a nice trailer, but took some cash and a lot of cussing rusty nuts to get it there. I really didn't want to spend 7K+ on a new one, but I think I'm almost there with this one. IF I ever get another, I will definately go brand new.
