Dagnabbit Sam! Don't do this to me! 
Looks complete too. Just unloaded my '92 yesterday and the tilt trailer is empty.......I could load logs on my flatbed trucks with that boom. I could paint Mt Pickett Heavy Lifting on the doors, I could build my wife a big rock wall around the garden I keep saying I'm gonna build for her. Oh never mind.... Dare me to call?

Yeah, and I'm finally busy as heck at work and on Thursday morning we head out for two days at Snoqualmie Falls for our one year wedding anniversary. Even a double dog dare wouldn't do it this 3 day week! But thanks for the heads up. Now if it was a MH or a 1 1/2 ton panel.......

I'll let you know if I find anything, but of course if its a 1 1/2 ton panel I might have to buy it for myself. But then again if I tried to drag it home my family would kick me out and I'd have to live in it. Not a bad fate I suppose...

I've thought about making a large 'hotel style' depot hack woody from a ton and a half. I had ten years building wood boats before I switched to furniture, doors and cabinets. We have a vacuum press that will lay up 4.5x 8.5" panels. It has been a lifetime dream of mine and I think it will happen within a few years. Of course with all the labor involved, I'd be bunking in mine too. I have a photo of a dodge version on my old computer when I dig it out........

Gary - you started it now. Truck based woodies are another of the Holy Grail of finds. Here's a good old thread about them, and a few pictures of the variety of models that could be built by Campbell Midstates and others. Stu
