Little Spark

[ojgrsoi]

A little more work done. The trailer tongue was not long enough to add a tongue box. I had a new one made two feet longer than the original.

I had two cross pieces welded on to mount the box.

HF box. I was impressed. I thought it would be junky but it seems well made.




I'm relocating the battery to this box to put a little more weight on the tongue. More coming soon.

I sold my Gray Jeep and had to return the rear door.

I made this new one.

Here are some glamour shots at a local park.

I got a nudge that I should stripe the side door. So...
Before.

With the the black.

Added the red & white.


Side view.

That catches me up.

Little Spark went to a new home today. I couldn't convince my wife that Little Spark was as much fun as the 29' travel trailer. Sad to see it go but it's better for someone to get some use out of it than to just reside in my garage.

Thanks to you all for your words of encouragement and assistance. I will continue to lurk and watch the action!

Received a message from the new owner. He sold his home and is living in his travel trailer in a RV park. He got a new neighbor. The neighbor was parking his 5th wheel across the driveway. He got out and cranked down his landing gear. As the trailer went up the truck drove away. He had left it in drive!
The truck drove across the drive and ran into Lil. Spark. It damaged all four stabilizers along with the new tongue Jack. The body moved on the frame about .25". The new owner looked at all the locations where the body was mounted to the frame but could see no wood damage.
So it is what it is.

Sad news for sure. Glad no one was hurt.
