Grigg,
Mainly a daily driver once I retire.
I'd like to find an old Airstream trailer to fix up and tow behind it around North America.
I screwed up when I ordered the channel. I ordered 1/4" Mild Steel. I didn't realize the original frame is only about 3/16" thick. I figured once I had it, I may as well use it. I know that it'll hold up to anything I throw at it once it's finished.
Many moons ago (over 20 years ago, now that I think about it!), I worked in a truck shop preparing trucks for the oilfield and other heavy applications. I build winch trucks, installed blowers, pumps, winches, PTO's, auxilliary transmissions, truck bodies, tanks, headache racks, bumpers, etc. The memories of how to do things like I'm attempting now come flooding back. I did the same to many Kenworths, White's, Hayes, Western Stars, etc. back in the day.
