Hey, that rut looks familiar. Where is that if you don't mind me asking?

And don't tell me it is near the Freak Kingdom.

It's at the fork of Iron Cyn. and EP11, about 2 miles NNE of Garlock. And yes, it is very near the Freak Kingdom!

How long exactly did it take you to do that body off frame resto on yours? Looks like it was a hell of a project.

A long time. I did not have any money so I was piecing it together out of a bunch of rusty junkers. It is nice to know every bolt in your cruiser, but it was NOT worth it. Should have just bought a southern truck, it is all rusting out again from the damn salt.



I love the 40 with the kayak trailer, makes me want to go paddling. Baja I assume? I want to go. All you losers that live out there near the mountains, the national forests the cool desert peninsula that juts out into the pacific, make sure you take advantage of them. I see these pics and get very jealous.

Yeah, ditto that, I'm really wanting to trek down that way someday too. I'm thinking it might be a good excuse for a May trip.

Jonathan, would you mind giving us some info or pics on this trailer? It looks kind of like the setup I'm looking to build.

It's now equipped with a CDL switch, OEM hand throttle, snorkel, m12000, drawer system, sliders, dual batteries, fridge, second swing out and c02 tank Im done buying stuff for the cruiser for a long long time.

Regarding the trailer (which was pictured near the Seri Indian village of Punta Chueca, in Sonora, where I based some of my kayak tours): It was partially custom made and partially home built. I had a pro build the frame from box-section steel, four-inch and three-by-four-inch, with an extended box-section tongue that formed sort of a spine and went all the way to the back of the trailer. I put a two-ton axle with Land Cruiser pattern hubs on it. Then my father-in-law helped me weld the superstructure, which could hold nine boats plus a bunch of gear. I used standard Thule saddles on the crosspieces. It was a stout beast and never had any problems with mainland or Baja roads. It's since morphed into a utility trailer (no superstructure and shorter tongue).

The first picture from was the top of Pearl Pass between Aspen and Crested Butte. Awesome views of the Maroon Bells and beats the heck out of the long drive around on the highway to the Butte.
