Dose anybody know if they still make the Hercules trailers? And or if anybody still sells them.
I heard they went belly up. But don't know if anybody bought them out.

Rick....... Hercules is still in busines but I don't know about the neat little trailers. He makes 34 Woodies now.

Hey Deuce, I read that Hercules makes 4 piece hoods for '32 & 33/34 Fords. Would you know what
the quality/fit is like??

I have had no dealings with Hercules my self. A friend purchased a 34 3W Ford coupe a few years ago and it came with a Hercules trailer. Looks like a Harley-Davidson box off a police 3 wheeler. Neat piece. I tried to buy it from my friend.

He left the little trailer outside 1 night and a huge hail storm came thru town and beat the top lid up real bad. He called Tampa and talked to Cecil.....the owner I believe..and ordered a new lid. Fit like a glove and the workmanship was great. That is all I know about Hercules in Tampa FLA.

PS......the neat little trailer was stolen at the Goodguys INDY show 7 - 8 years ago. Never to be seen again !

That's the trailer i'm talking about. The one that looks like it belongs on a Harley trike.

Rick, if you're talking about the Hercules trailer company in Ohio, I think they're out of business. I think they made horse trailers and other types. There is a company in Tennesee that makes a model called Hercules. http://www.homesteadertrailer.com/pages/enclosed-trailer-herc.htm

You might think it's strange that I would know anything about this, but I've got a Hercules step bumper on my van that I use for towing and its a real heavy duty bumper and I've been looking for another one. I don't know if they were made by the same company or not. I haven't had any luck with that either.

CRUZR....... That's what I thought. The neat little Harley Box trailer. The www.herculesmotorcarcompany.com link should hook you up with the guys in FLA. who made them. He advertises 34 Woodys now. He may still make you a trailer. Saw 1 on Ebay a few weeks ago. Went for about $750, but it was in Iowa.....too far to be practical for me to go pickup. Now for Deuce parts, that's a different story. Have truck, will travel.......
