As I was showing Karen the photos of the new trailer, I commented on how the pointy nose and its sitting up on the rails (sort of like it's hiking up its skirt to cross a puddle) makes the trailer look like a husky snow mobile trailer. Karen replied with "Well, Donny does have one of those little cars.............." :laugh: :laugh: :laugh:

 

I thought it was a "Bass Boat"

 

says the driver of a Dodge Dart.......

 

so says the driver of a "little car"............... LOL at least she didn't call it a "little SPORTS car".........

Please find where it states "DART" anywhere on the old Dodge............I"ll give you a dozen of Karen's Cinnamon Chip Cookies (these would be Clary's if he doesn't hit his weight goal)if you can find the ~one~ spot it states "DART". Calling my GTS a Dart is like referring to all GTO's as aLeMans instead. And I know that all Road Runners are called Belvederes...........

 

I would think your truck would pull it. Just put some gears in it. Like maybe 4.10. What gear is in it now?

 

If it walks like a Dart and it quacks like a Dart.........

I guess this was a true Cadillac, too

3.42 gears now, but it's 4 wheel drive

 

I said CINNAMON cookies, not a Cadillac Cimmeron. Also, that was badged as a Cadillac, the GTS is not badged as a Dart.
Go up to the next GTO owner you see and ask him how his LeMans is running. ou:ou:



Back to the subject at hand..........what truck did you upgrade to?? I lost 2 1/2 mpg going from my open trailer to the enclosed with the V-10. Even with your V-nose, you're still pushing a lot of extra air, and hauling more weight. I bought some AirTabs for my trailer and I'll be seeing if they help with the aero and with the MPG. Right now, whenever I pass a semi tractor/trailer I get the trailer twitching. Supposedly these AirTabs will eliminate that.

 

got back to work on the trailer this weeked, I am pretty pleased how it is coming along

 

I will never get it done by Stanton, but at least I will have a place to keep some stuff

 

Donny , did the trailer come with the White on the walls and you added the lower wood or ? other than cabinets what did you do to the interior ?

 

Looks good nice job:TU:

 

John,

the trailer interior came unfinished, the wood is the plywood interior.

I am adding he FRP panels and trim, then I will work on the lower half of the walls.


here is where I started

 

what are ya, moving into it? making a more comfortable "dog house"? lol!

 

getting closer... but I suppose I should go out to the garage and see if the car runs........

 

Donny, your wife called.. Said you never even finished the dog door - so she has no Idea where you got the energy to do this trailer!!!!:moonu:

Lookin good, keep goin, you will be glad you did. I'm gonna want the full tour at the race. see you then.

 

Nice Work Donny , where did you get the door you are adding on from ?

 

Looks nice Donny..:TU:
