that would be ALOT of turtle.. had a minor mishap loading the trailer ...mental note.. use caution when loading a van with zero brakes on a car trailer aiming slightly downhill LOL..rolled a little fast onto the trailer.. came to a hard stop at the other end against the electric winch oooops.. i wasn't planning on using the front or rear bumpers anyway [Wink] got lucky no panel damage

i had a chain around the axle to the trailer side rail that was supposed to catch it- but on it's way onto the trailer the chain slipped off the axle.. i was in front of the van just before it came crashing,but i did see it slip- did all the towing,loading and unloading alone and the van has zero operational brakes right now LOL.. had to slowly bring the trailer to level ground to roll the van back on the trailer and chain it down- the pitch on the driveway didn't seem so bad till then LOL the winch never was hooked up as long as my freind has had the trailer,only scratched the cover on it the bumper didn't fair so well but the nose is safe behind it...sad about the bumper,but i'm goin to roll pan both ends as planned- was a good bumper lost to a good cause though- it's goin inside my shop for tear down tomarrow -going to start a album for pics of this project to post as it goes along -tomarrow i remove the condensor from the roof that should be some fun [Wink]
