    Well, for some reason, I felt the need to sand the red to at least the green but the red seems to be very strong paint, so I’m not so sure I have to go through to the green that’s about all I am able to do this go around too much tedious work that’s enough for a little. We’re going to have to start winding down more barbecue tonight. Might be time for a beer. Again, this sanding thing is way more work than I thought.

    I was thinking of drilling out the bolts after you mentioned that I might just chop a hole in the side and put nuts and washers on the back

    I forgot to mention in that last paragraph before Covid. The engine crane was $100 cheaper. Auto spell doesn’t want to work right anymore on this phone.

    We were also talking about that tent trailer we decided it’s easier to fly and get a hotel bob

    Well you know I don’t know about you fellas but Home Depot here rents just about anything engine crane would be the ticket. I’m fixing to buy one shortly myself I am pissed harbor freight wanted 179 now it’s $100 more after.. but they are a lifesaver. He could also use one of those not that much to rent one wheel dolly. Yes, of course that’s the ticket, but as you mentioned. Ca Ching ca Ching and as an individual, how often would you need it?

    I was wondering if you tried watts B model store I thought I saw ads if not, if I were you, I would buy a bunch of sheet metal and just build your own good luck

    I used to run through there every night years ago… after 9/11 you can’t even park along there anymore and look over the side. This is what they tell me anyway, I haven’t went through there in 30 years.bob

    Man, what a cool story glad you had a swinging time and made money. I thought the trailer was a lot bigger, but that thing must’ve been a breeze to pull. Thanks for sharing. Yes Arizona has gorgeous scenery. I wish I would’ve moved there instead of this. Ice Haven and yes 102 dry heat is not bad at all. We get it here a lot. I am out there working on it. Bob

    I’m thinking after all this money and effort maybe you need to start making money with it ha ha ,,,amazing .also, you mentioned the ride , if I would’ve had to take a wild, guess I would have thought that the B model would’ve rode better… bob

    I forgot to mention, even if you use the grease Paul suggested, which is a fabulous idea. You should have somebody helping you because the duels with everything connected are very heavy. Good luck…. Bob
