Sorry, no idea. Its a pretty common tray style here in Australia. Albeit this one had a few more B&S type additions...

Bought this absolute nugget of a Hilux (see ending photos) in early 2020 to help us with moving house at a time where lots of the hire places weren't hiring trailers out etc. After doing a bunch of work to get it vaguely reliable (suspension, tailshaft, brakes etc) it dropped compression on #3 cylinder. So last year during our lockdown I decided to rebuild the engine, which led to a little bit of scope creep and a forged bottom end for a spinny-muffler.
Once the engine was done the rest of the scope spiralled a bit and so i built a new tray from scratch and repainted it in Raptor coat.
Still needs a bunch of work done to it, but its a start.
