Re: ‘Herding Turds’ - Post em up when you dragged them in

Here are a few I pulled out of purgatory. I only own one of these today, but I really wish I could keep them all. I'll be bringing home another in a couple weeks, I got no business really doing this, but I can't help it!

Re: ‘Herding Turds’ - Post em up when you dragged them in

Mine was purchased sight unseen from the other end of Oregon in Idaho in 2012. A friend drove me over to pick up and drive back. Almost half way the freeway was closed, and we drove through fairly deep snow in his Subaru on a long detour. Once picked up, we headed back and the freeway was open by then - but it was packed ice and snow, and was a little fun to drive with an unfamiliar truck. The trip was 17 hours end to end.

It was represented honestly by the 91 year old owner, but I wasn't at all thrilled with his taste in wheels and I eventually replaced in the spring with something different!

I'll bet you were standing on a corner when it went by .

Delivery day. Me on the right and my buddy on the left.
Second photo is how she sits now. Took my wife for a spin around the shop in it yesterday. She laughed because the only brakes are the parking brake and it spits and sputters a bit. BUT, it does run, it's getting better all the time, and it's mine.

68 Chev 20; 70 Chev SWB; 67 GMC.

This trailer is the best investment in my truck hobby that I have ever made. In typical fashion I of course bought it before I owned anything that I could tow it with, so I had to borrow a friend's truck for awhile.

Re: ‘Herding Turds’ - Post em up when you dragged them in

The winch was the second-best investment. I have lots of friends who are into cars and they don't have trailers and winches because all their junk actually runs! I might at this point finally have more than half of my projects on the road.

Re: ‘Herding Turds’ - Post em up when you dragged them in

I'm a sucker for 67 stuff. My wife cringes everytime I hook up the trailer. I dragged this 4x4 panel home the other week. I responded to a Kijiji ad for emblems on the weekend after seeing the 67 GMC glovebox emblem. I picked it up today and when I asked "what else you got" I was pleasantly surprised.
