  1. Painting a car is not that difficult. I have helped with a few this month and having never seen it before i figured alot more went into it than it did. I am sure with practice comes alot better results and getting comfortable with the trigger of the gun was the hardest especially since its different from my residential paint sprayers. I was surprised how much wet sanding made the appearance look so much better after the clear dried. From what i have learned there isnt much use in trying to skimp on materials and go quality from the start. If you dont like the results sand it off and do it again which we also had to do on one because of color. Best thing is to do prep prep prep before painting to get the best results you can.
  2. The electric needing updating is just a finding, i dont think its a requirement . The loaning bank however might insist its done.
  3. Why tell them anything, just to be nice? If your selling I would wait until their inspector finds issues and these issues are brought up at the negotiating table. Their inspector might find several other things and if your already telling them that updates need done you could be costing yourself a sale or more issues when it comes to negotiating the sale.
  4. This is a luverne wrap around brush guard I believe for a 99-04 f series super duty or excursion. $300 OBO http://i33.photobucket.com/albums/d87/wnaplay/Mobile%20Uploads/CAM00218_zpsdmokeggs.jpg
  5. $20 each, girls bikes are all 16" I believe and the boys is a regular 20" bmx style. Non have been ridden in awhile. Red bike needs brakes. http://i33.photobucket.com/albums/d87/wnaplay/Mobile%20Uploads/CAM00215_zps4rtshvbp.jpg http://i33.photobucket.com/albums/d87/wnaplay/Mobile%20Uploads/CAM00217_zpsm8a0s3p8.jpg http://i33.photobucket.com/albums/d87/wnaplay/Mobile%20Uploads/CAM00219_zpst7fqtyet.jpg http://i33.photobucket.com/albums/d87/wnaplay/Mobile%20Uploads/CAM00220_zps6squ1w4t.jpg
  6. I was surprised to see both tops and bottoms of all metal is fully welded. It won't hold a lot of weight I know that. I will try to get my ram up on it and see just how bad it flexes. That's probably more weight than I will ever reasonably put on it. I will make it a full deck trailer as I typically just haul materials or stuff for people which I was able to do with the utility I sold. I just wanted to also be able to throw a car on it for short distances Just in case I wanted to. More of a small front end loader than an actual track ho excavator.

  11. The axles(2) are in what appears were their original housing/frame and someone simply cut the section out that held the axles and started building the new trailer right to the top of it, if that makes sense. It has 5 lug hubs I believe and has what I am almost certain or some year of chevy cavalier rims.
  12. This does not have c channel. If memory serves this is basically (4) 16' L channels running the length of the trailer with cross bracing. I will get some pics tomorrow and look for numbers on the axles.
  13. This guy is in his 60's and his theory was if it fit on the trailer then the trailer can haul it. I may have to run it over to the local shop and see what they think.
  14. How would I ever figure those questions out? This thing could have been built 30 years ago or 5. All I know is that the guy has had weight on it before and it seemed to hold together, lol. Are their numbers on the axles perhaps I could cross reference?
  15. This is a continuation of the ramp thread from earlier. I swapped the utility trailer I had for sale for a homebuilt 2 rail car hauler. Its definitely not heavy duty,has no suspension and is built right on the axles. I don't plan on hauling things very far obviously, I just figured if I was going to have a trailer it might as well be able to haul a car which the utility could not. The hauler was used by an old guy who probably didn't ever think about safety. I know he hauled cars from time to time including a bobcat and track ho. For what I got out of the utility trailer I was able to do some updating on this thing and still have some cash left over so far. The rails were decked with about 8 different pieces of varying size and thickness of wood(barely held on). I have since replaced it all with 2x12x16' pressure treated lumber, rewired the lights and installed a new jack. I wanted to redo the deck with diamond plate but the cost of metal alone would have put me over the cost of a brand new trailer. I am thinking about just putting wood over the entire thing and making it one solid deck rather than just the 2 rails. My question is how would I ever be able to tell how much weight this thing can hold? I know its not something I would haul a car from state to state on and primarily just got it to haul locally but I want to make sure its safe. The welds all look solid but the axles are rated for? And are from? The goal is to not spend beyond what I was able to get from the other trailer or spend so much I could have just bought an engineered new one for. I still need to figure out some sort of ramps to use so cheap suggestions are appreciated. Anything to consider before using this thing or a way to determine its capabilities? I hope to get some pics tomorrow.
  16. Anyone have any ramps that can be used on a car trailer?
  17. Have a mechanic write a letter stating the car is inoperable due to xxxxx.
  18. I havent fished in years but do own a fishing boat. Maybe its time to get everyone out soon.
  19. Sounds like its just an issue with the citys system right now and may just go away. Look into a check valve if you dont want to experience it again. Rent and run an auger through the drain if it doesnt resolve itself.
  20. Can you just open it up and slap In a new monitor if in fact it is just the monitor?
  21. Try andersons general store.
  22. So what is the smallest winch you can get away with you think so you arent just pissed you didnt go bigger.
