Breaking down and converting a popup

First, im sorry if im posting in the wrong category.

Second, yes, I know this gets covered from time to time, but I couldnt find all the info im looking for...

So I found a gutted pop up on cl for $200. Looked good, and cheapest ive found for a utility trailer. When I looked again, the ad was gone. Groovy.

So, I post an ad for a free to cheap pop up. I get an email, lady has one with a good frame and tires for $100. I figured there was a little money to be made off of the upper half, prob not enough to clear $100, but to get a little money back.

Disposing of the wood/insulation/garbage is no issue, I can do it for free legally. Ive read, jowever that.the refridgeraters in these are designed differently? Is it possible to be evacd?

What are ANY areas of concern to look out for?

For guys that have done this, did you reinforce the lower half in any way? Or the floor?

Do they pull decent stripped out?

Basically im looking for a cheap trailer option. I have access to two utility trailers, but one pulls like crap over 35mph, and the other is in bad need of repair...needs welding and the wood floors replaced. I offered to buy that one from my brother for what he paid for it, and fix it, but he wont sell it. Any other trailers around here under.$300 are junk...

Put the fridge on CL. I sold a unit out of a travel trailer for $20. Buyer pulled it himself. I made it clear that I have no idea if it works and he was okay with that.

i like to crank them up high as they will go, and then drive under a low tree limb on my way out the gate

Thanks M88...just what I was looking for. You're like a god around here, you know that right?

Diva, thanks, like I said I knew they were different, just couldn't remember how.

I'd like to see how an old boat trailer would work, utilizing the "tilt" feature to unload
