Even if it is junk I would imagine the windows would sell for decent money.

$1200 is not too crazy for a cargo trailer that size.

He sent me pics. The frame isn't rotted, it is the wood 2x4's inside that are. I mean, that is easy to replace, here is the real issue. Someone broke into the storage area where it was and CUT the bubble up to see what was inside of it. So the windows are thrashed. I mean, it isn't going to be hard to replace them with some tinted plastic, but I would need to get this thing for a couple hundred instead of the $1200 he is asking for it. I don't want another project.

It looks old school cool. Too bad it's not in the condition as advertised.

Definitely. I mean, I could scoop up another short panel Econoline for that.

I’m thinking about getting a different overhead visor for my van.

I like this one that Kurk makes, I think I’ll call him next week and see what his lead time is or if he has one ready to go.

Econoline wiring is almost freaking done!!!! But there are issues with the fuel gauge (busted) and the new speedo (isn't spinning, probably wasn't aligned right). Oil and temp gauges are working though. grin The horn is wired weirdly on the factory schematic which we need to figure out. Getting so close to being done with this mess.

Also advanced the timing a little today to see what more we could squeeze out of her. My butt dyno registered a definite improvement, and the guy down the street yelling SLOW DOWN!!! was all the confirmation I needed. lol worms sorry neighbors....

Hell yeah! I’m hoping you’ll still have yours when mine is on the road. I’d run it down to Santa Cruz in a hot minute.

I picked up a three chime air horn at the flea market Sunday. It's a lot like the ones Hobo Freight sells, with a compressor unit and plastic tubing, but it's fairly old. Haven't messed with it to test it yet.

Syracuse Nationals are this week, for the five bucks I paid it may end up out on the table with $20 on it and if it sells great, if not then maybe I'll use it. Be nice to have a loud horn, I get cut off constantly in traffic.
