I'd love more pics on the trailer and the T. I'm addicted to both! Posted using the Full Custom H.A.M.B. App!
Few years ago I attended a hot rod power tour. Had a good time but the motel bill for the trip killed me. I built this little thing for a few hundred bucks and then traveled another 4 years on the tour. Dragged it behind my '29 oil burnin' roadster. Saved a shitload of money and had an absolute blast in the process. Still got it, but it ain't been on the road for a few years. Hauled it from Michigan to Nebraska to Ohio to Tennessee to Texas to Wisconsin to Florida and locally. Fun on a trip and only had to give up a little dignity.
This is in a scrap yard near me. May be gone by now, but could be replicated. I want to go back to see if I can get more detailed pictures. This is the only one I took at the time. Dope!
I'm haulin' ass when I tow the Burrow With the air dumped on the truck it makes the little 13 footer look bigger!
Hope you guys aren't getting sick of me posting pics of the ranch... but I love how utilitarian this car truck has been- I had an Avion for a while. They're great trailers. They're made a little beefier than an Airstream. One of the coolest features was the fact that it had a torsion bar hitch! Sold the camper to Jonnycola- It actually drove better with the torsion bars and hauling a trailer than on its own...- the way it divides the weight between both axles rules. I ended up getting a old torsion bar hitch for my single axle... Heres some pics of the car I hauled down for Potsie- loaded it up without ramps just backed it down in the ditch and rolled it on. I guess they used to back the rear tires up on ramps and that would lower the back of the trailer. I hauled my 34 back with the torsion bars- and that setup was the cats ass! You can't even tell you're hauling a car!
I love the look of this thing- I really want to build a tear drop some day- love the traditional low versions but I like how tall this is... I don't know what it is- maybe the proportions and fenders... it just makes me smile.
It would be interesting to see who built that trailer out of car& truck parts...if it was cleaned up,it would be KOOL.. I like it! Rick
