Thats a sweet deal Gage. If it would have come up in the 80's I'd have been there the next day as I lived just up the road in Rosamond.
Hope someone takes it. It's kinda cute. :thumbsup:

I know its the photographer, and not the camera. I'll keep shooting with a Pentax. Just in case.

Bump, Bump............It's got to go. In two weeks it's going to the recycler. He'll pay cash. :(

Man...I'd take her in a heartbeat at that price...wish I were in the neighborhood!!! That's a very generous offer!!! I sure hope someone on the board can step up and turn that trailer into a restored classic!!! I think it has the "look"!!! The fenders, bumpers and windows are aesthetically very nice...just missing some wood near as I can tell!!!

Man I would love to take it, but for me it would be easier to build from stratch or take the trailer down to the frame and build from there. But it would cost me as much in gas as it would to buy a nice frame and wheels. :cry: :cry: oh well.
Arthur,

Wow, Gage, I can't believe that someone has not taken you up on this fantastic deal!!! What a shame to have it go to the recycler!!

:whistle: Hey Satch, why don't you see if you could bribe someone to get it to North Cali.

If I was in California I would help tow it, hell, if I was in California I would take it! It is really cool looking! But I am not, so I really don't help much.
But I must say, Gage, if you had to thin out your projects, and this was the one to go, seeing as how cool this one is, it would be pretty interesting to see which ones you kept. Got to be pretty nifty :thumbsup:

Dianne
Good luck Gage / satch.

Thanks!
There is some really cool stuff in there (I only skimmed.) I will keep that button in mind and check it out some other time (I need more then a couple minutes to look at all your stuff). But I should be off to bed soon. Work comes early and then at noon it is off to ING 1.0 in Minnesota!!

Thanks again!
Dianne

I can see that the floor needs a little work, but is the roof leaky? Constructing the body is what's keeping me shy of building my own, and I love the style of the one you've got here. Well, that and the price is right too - if it weren't for the rediculous price for gas to get to Cali. from Tx. So when you say it needs almost everything ...does that include exterior walls and roof too? One more question: What is this thing? Is that an old ice-box or something?
I started out with nothing, and I still have most of it left.

Gage, I am in love with your F-100 in the very last pic on the boottom of your "project" page. I wish Iw as closer I would be more than willing to take this off your hands

Looks to me like it's the tongue box.
