[massey130]

man, that is a great looking job. how did you fit it in with all the other stuff going on?

I would like to learn to do that kind of work, but fitting it in with all the other stuff just doesn't leave time for much else.

 

I know you will get some some use out of that trailer. nice work.

Dunno that yet ... but at least it's the same color LOL

 

I haven't licensed the trailer yet nor have I gotten a hitch for the scoot ... that will come early August as we don't plan on using the trailer until September when we go on holidays.

 

I just hope it tows as good as it looks!

[Jus Monkeyin Around]

Looks great!!!!!!!! Nice job:big-grin-emoticon:

[SilvrT]

Thanks for all the comments guys

 

I haven't sat down and tallied the receipts yet but just from a mental tally, I figgure total investment will come out around $600. That doesn't include the cost of the hitch for the scoot.

 

I replaced all the lights and ran all new wiring, added 3/8 inch plywood to the floor for a bit more strength. The tongue hitch was also damaged a bit so I lengthened the tongue a bit and put a new hitch on. Biggest "single" expense was the paint mostly because ya can't seem to buy thinner and clearcoat/hardener in smaller quantities so I have lots of that left over.

 

I still have a few lights to mount and carpeting in the interior. I'll post final pics once that's done.
