Trailers Christining.

Yesterday I hauled my first vehicle on my new trailer. A 64 econoline van. No motor or trans. Undercarraige is all rotted away. But I can use some of the frame rails. It belongs to a friend doing a 63 Merc van. So he is still needing parts. So it is being stored at my place.
The front spring on the drivers side mounting plate is rusted away and held together with wood 2x4's. Very dangerous. He was driving it til this mid summer. He paid $800 for this van and it was only worth what is happening to it now.

I just can never get the hang of how to post pics on the thread so I put it in my gallery.

Looks good Glen.
Remember that the first ding or dent is the deepest. Never ever lend it out......

I'm debating that next spring to maybe get it all fixed up and start doing some short hauls around Saskatoon or here to Regina for people as extra income on the weekends.
