What about Tow Vehicles....let's see them.

Lanterns, stoves, etc... anything old!

I'm jealous!

My dad had a Willys wagon...he sold it when something went wrong and got a Toyota Land Cruiser instead. Not the same at all. :(

Sweet!!!

The windows on the tear are great!

But no whitewalls for the trailer? Isn't there a way of doing that for trailer tires?

Nice combo Dan! The house is also awesome!

Nice wagon SSRJIM!

Dragonfire...you can get real white walls, I love 'em on mine... or get some white rings that are seated under the bead, or paint them using the newer fusion plastic paints...although I don't know how well that would work, or you can make your own, Like Len did. Get a white letter tire, and grind off the letters down into the white substrate. Doug

I don't need white walls...the white stripe would be nice, but I'm not going to do that...too much trouble.

He has white walls on the truck, so I thought the trailer tires would match.

Maybe he's working on that...or has a good reason to leave it the way it is.

Dragging a quote from another thread :shock: ? How does that apply :? ?
Madjack knows quite well of mine and others opinion of the Aztec.
It was discussed about 2 years ago.
It appears I'm not the only one...Pontiac Aztec Danny

It was on page one of this thread...regarding the little pickup....


I'm so tempted to post a picture of my vehicle...you would laugh, but it could tow it if I put a hitch on it.

But I'm going to be getting a small truck in the next few months, which will still be nothing special to look at..basically a 'bug truck'....

I stand corrected on the tread, sorry :oops: .

I'm not here for a confrontation or to laugh at anyone's personal tow vehicle.
The tennis shoe looking pick up on page 1 is funny looking and that just my opinion.
I'm out of this topic. Danny
