See if he will haul it to your address. Then you have a lot of leverage on price, once he faces hauling back again.  | ||

I had one of those "no address to be given to you" types too. I was trying to buy a Dodge pickup. Met at a dunkin donuts, why not? We went for a test ride. It was OK and I was going to meet with him the following weekend to talk numbers. Would. Not. give address. Couldn't meet with him. The address is on your TITLE, clownboy. It is inevitable that I eventually find out where your secret batcave lair is.  | ||

Pay the money and run his plate. People are slow and odd. | ||

So, I looked up Lil Red in the Urban Dictionary. Whoa. That ain't nice. | ||

Yes, the alarms go off, if you touch one of the cars. I didn't do it. Went for a ride earlier. Overcast and in the 50s. Supposed to hit 69 degrees today. Temps. today were great for burning the brush I have accumulated out back. Problem is it is all wet and I have to drag it to the fire. Maņana! | ||
| Ourdee |
Almost all the brush is burnt. I'm putting up the last 4 fence panels this afternoon. That will close the backyard back in. I've had a fire going for the last 5 days. Got a ride in this morning. It's 85 out there now. Long enough break. Getting back on it. | ||

I'm working on a 2015 Jeep Renegade. Draw-Tite hitch will be here Monday. Watching for a rim and tire to use as a spare. Will need to come up with a small flat-bed trailer for trucking duty. I need to take the luggage off Lil Red still. Projects seem to be piling up again. | ||
| Ourdee |
Well, I've been looking hard for a rim for the Renegade. So what did I pick up today? A rim with tire rotor and pulley for the rear of an XB. Yep, out of a barn out in the country. I hope I have better luck with the hitch Monday than the last one I installed. Half way through I had to take it to a shop that could tweak it into place. | ||

You know, at times you can really be a tease... So what did I pick up today? A rim with tire rotor and pulley for the rear of an XB. What color? 2 bearing or 3? Back up for use, or earmarked for another Ourdee patented perilous project? Curious lot, aren't I? | ||
| Ourdee |
For now, black, 2 bearing, back up. I also scored a shift lever, linkage, and shaft nub on the end for $5. Nice spare for the oops box. I have a messed up idea on how to plate my home build mono wheel trailer project. It involves a harbor freight trailer that converts into two different style trailers with a common frame piece that will join two different axle configurations and two different hitch configurations. Any cheap legal advice from the peanut gallery would be appreciated. | ||

I did get this hitch on. 40 minute install my rump.  | ||
| Ourdee |
I picked up a 4 x 7 trailer with a 3' ramp today. Someone removed the rear 4 feet of rails on each side. I'll be welding new rail and fenders on it. It needs the rail so I can put chains on it to haul with the gate open and not dragging. That way I can fit plywood in it. $250 and it has a spare. Should haul the usual junk I find. | ||
| Ourdee |
I am thinking this trailer thing is like Jeeping. Nickel and dime-ing me. Title, registration, plates, Draw-Tite hitch, trailer wire kit for Renegade, 2 latches, 3 4' 1/8"x2" angle iron, 2 fenders, and a spool of wire. It did come with a new hitch ball and spare. Let me figure the total so far......$639.49. No charge for welding or install. Not a bad total to get back in the game. Lucky, lucky, lucky. Most of the things I had to get were on sale. I do need to sort the trailer wires yet. | ||

If you weld it, I will ride it. (Message edited by 86129squids on November 02, 2018) | ||

I finished the Hitch wiring for the car yesterday. Put fenders on it and found out the trailer wiring for the lights are correct. I have a paper plate for it and all just in time to haul my rump to the poles. Even got a new front plate on the Jeep. | ||
| Crusty |
How many poles are you going to be carrying? | ||
| Ourdee |
Depends on how many rumps we have. | ||

Some times the artsy side has to come out. I like Mr. Lawler's work.  | ||

That lamp belongs in your front window! | ||
| Ourdee |
I know, right? It is about three feet from it's Christmas window. I am waiting till ThanksGiving day. It will be there for when the relatives arrive. | ||
| Ourdee |
Look, fenders.  | ||
| 86129squids |
The lampshade is yellow, seems it should be red. With a blue bulb. Maybe just get a red bulb. | ||

 That Dog.....  Craving ham and beans.  Gasp......  Ham is in it now.  Working on it boss. | ||
| 86129squids |
RD- gotcha an American Eskimo Spitz? Cool dogs... I considered them before I got my first Basenji. Beans look good!  | ||
| Ourdee |
Yalp, My understanding was they were bread for circus work. If she plays with a ball, the ball is bigger than her. For Northern folk (white beans). All I had. I wonder if I have stuff for corn bread? |
