This is the trailer we took to visit collieguy


This trailer made stops in Colorado, Oklahoma, Missouri, Indiana, South Dakota, Minnesota, Nebraska, Wyoming, Idaho, and a couple other states.
It has been languishing behind a barn in Junction City.


This is what happens when you languish behind a barn in Junction City


It looks a lot better after ten bucks worth of quarters in at the local carwash.


This is what it looked like in 2002, at a park in Verona, Missouri on November 2, 2002.

    It looks much better attached to a Ford.

    The 460 got 7 mph going to get the trailer and 8 coming back with it. Truck didn't know it was pulling a trailer. Difference was I drove 65 mph on the way and 55 on the way back. The 350 Chevy got 14 mpg with trailer and as low as 4 mph with the trailer.

    It would look even better behind an International!

      Was going to call you but it was a quick trip. Things went wrong. Had to replace serpentine belt tensioner along the way. Had to get to Rears before the closed at noon. Had to get home before 3 p.m.
      Didn't get home before 3 p.m.

    And a fine visit it was.

    I've seen faces with the same expression as that languishing truck. Nothing morning coffee won't cure.

      BBQ in the Snow? Precariously Parked in a Pig Pasture?

    I wish I still had the Chevy but then I remember why I sold it...
