Wonder what that says about the demographics.?. ;) Guess we (society today, not me) want our BIG 'ol cake and eat it too! haha

I love how this is coming along and looks great! I have one side question I didn't see addressed. The frame seems to be 1" square tubing with the carpet stuff being the main component. I was just curious if instead of carpet, could you have used spray in expanding foam then cover it? The foam...

I don't remember if I mentioned it but I had been eyeballing a trailer that had looked abandoned here on post. I finally got an MP to look at it the plate for me and he found that the owner had left over 3 years ago. The insinuation was that if it went away that nobody would care and it would...

I'm scared to see where Jeep/Feep goes with the only remaining actual Jeep looking model. A retired Col. here has been working on his MB since I've been here. Its jaw dropping sexy and almost laughable in its pure simplicity. We took it for a spin and got waves and grins everywhere we went...

Yea that you made it!!!!!!!!!!!!! Congrats and post up (with pics...haha) when you get recovered and settled. :)

Who puts ONE wheel on a trailer??? hahaha! Neat though... in a vintage Vespa sort of way. ;)

Hey Greg... Mind if I ask what that cost ya? Did you get all 150 feet worth? You can PM me if you don't want to broadcast the cost. :)

Baby armageddon? I thought THIS was supposed to be the SHTF vehicle of choice? :)

Haha....I thought that was only after the first time your in it in the rain and realize your forgot to install the seal? ;O So are these type doors/hatch usually made out of wood? I have never looked at them much and am learning.

Oh goodie! Been waiting for this part! :) Can't wait to see how its waterproofed/seal design.

Edgestar!!!!!!!!! ;)

I think its worth more in scrap steel prices.?. ;) And without a diesel? lol

Mark Harley... I hope that wasn't YOU doing 167!?!?!?! Lol! And yup... as soon as I can get someone there to answer the freakin' phone and let me know how/when to pick it up I can start. Bob... Thanks again. I suppose if I was sure I could so something to help like add air bags or something...

So Bob...Is it possible to "tune" the torsion axle by ordering different arms? How about getting some kind of parking brake? I haven't heard from the auction guy yet and when I called yesterday I was told he was out. I'll try calling again today...getting antsy about starting to tinker. :)

Actually that's really close...haha! I figured "Project Speedy" sounded appropriate. :) Though speed buggy ran a close second. lol! No word from the auction folks but I pretty much expected that. I have a 0300 work call tomorrow and the shop is closed until Wed anyway so I'm guessing maybe I can...

Cool build!! Felt the desire to peep in after you were kind enough to offer the great advice on my thread. :) I actually just read through the entire thread here...very neat build! I'm curious to see how the rear door/hatch thing is made. I may be hitting you up for some ideas... :)

Ahh... I did misread you. :) Thanks for setting me right. So would it be possible to swap the arms/rubber bushing thingies for heavier ones? I'll try it as is no matter just to see what I have. If I keep the axle as is I will find a way to make it better engineered. I agree that it looks like to...

Thanks for the feedback Bob! I'm willing to bet this thing has seen little use in its life as most military/government equipment tends to do. We (the GOV) tend to buy way more than is needed at a high cost and then most of it just sits around. The good thing about this trailer is that its not...

The latest... As of last night here is my new, soon to be Frankensteined, radar included project... ;)

Excited... I went down to try and find the local contact and see about getting it to the shop but the guy wasn't around. I agree that solar is a big plus and have to admit that is part of why I bid on it. It was more than I hoped to spend on it but I don't think 600 bucks is more than I would...
