Frame off!!!

Congrats on the frame! It looks beautiful! I just pulled the body off the frame on my Compact Jr. Wednesday, and it's sitting in my driveway on sawhorses, too! Our frames look EXACTLY the same. I, too, will be welding in a support in the front section, then will strip, sandblast, and paint mine. I hope it turns out as pretty as yours!

indoors

A really inspiring thread.

I'd give my right...well....uhmm...I'd really like an indoor heated garage with the headroom to store my trailer and or work on it. Lucky you MontanaSuzy

I'll second that!! A big workshop/barn is on my wish list when I start house-hunting. The trailer would have been finished a long time ago (more time for more projects) if we didn't have to contend with too hot/cold weather and that pesky night time darkness.

Unless the gelcoat is in really bad shape, you may want to check these out:

With a little elbow grease you can be blinding everyone else on the road in no time! :thumb

The extra support bar makes a huge difference. This only works if you don't have a propane tank, but I'll post a pic of the spare tire rack. The battery case had to be moved forward a smidgen, but it all worked out great.
