These people are the first to come to mind.

They also have the newer Penman trailers at a much higher price.
Or you could do it this way.  http://www.pablanchard.co.uk/newvehicles-152-x-defender-90.html
I haven't heard of these guys but they list Sankey trailers too.  http://www.lawrencetrucksandmachinery.com/search.php?area=63

I have a M101A trailer that I could part with. It's 24 volt set up with US army pins plug configuration. Fits nicely behind a pickup or Disco. I got my wide Sanky trailer now so not much use for it.

I've looked at some of my LRO magazines but don't see any other sellers than what Google found. :'(
I did find this interesting article, gives some food for thought.

Looks to have only surface rust and you have a tail gate as a bonus. :)

It looks like it would come out nicely after a blast and galvanize. My father has a farm near Perth, Ontario. The trailer could be brought there to await the trip.

Or you could just buy it and use uship.com to bid the lowest haul out.
