Picked this up yesterday just around the corner form my house. Thought it had a little potential.

Now that it's running right I'll be installing a new set of wheels and tires along with a small lift and some fender trimming.
 
might wanna take it in for alighment before you wear out those tires! looks like youve got a little bit of a camber issue!!!
 
Time for someone to repost their videos of riding on down the boat ramp at Arrowhead - Caverdave - wasn't that something ya'll did?

Your right!
Hillbillies in Paradise... enjoy

Caverdave - wasn't that something ya'll did?

Nope, just happen to be at the ramp cooling when the "Clampetts" came trolling up (literally... the outboard was DOA) in an old tri-hull with 90 metric tons of personal belongings :)poop:) towing a large blowup pool containing about 6-7 children... we only guessed that they'd been squatting in the woods and were evicted :lol:

While "daddy" was loading the boat on the trailer W/ flat tires, being towed by what I think was 1955 Chevy dumptruck (driver hollered at the kids to "put the brakes on" = drop 2 rocks behind the duals :shaking:)... the middle 3 boys took turns riding down the ramp. Was fine until about trip #4 when the steering caught/locked to the right near the bottom, throwing 1 into the ramp and the other into the dock pilings...

We laughed about it for the next 3 months...
