We are getting ready for the Toy Drive, and here is the beast with an un-restored M105 ....
we need a place to haul the donated bikes (for needy kids.. not you Dave!)
Anyways, I hooked on to it today and took it back to the compound. I didn't even notice it there.
It tracked like a champ, and the truck handled much better.
The tounge weight dampened the bounce, but I felt a real sucking sound from my wallet!
Backing it in with Arm Strong Steering was interesting, I had to open all windows and de-activate the cab heater,
but it is now parked within 2" of where the truck alone was!
Brakes, lights, rust removal and fresh paint will be happening real soon! New wood and a cargo cover are next.
And Yes, I will re-spring the banners before Santa's Big Green Helper does the run on Sunday!
And Yes, Dave has helped BIG time with this project.
Winch will be on when it warms up!
