Mmmm 1964 reasonably price all original . Guy bought it in Texas and has had it here for 3 years . 259 v8 3spd with overdrive , Studebaker was using international fleet side beds at the time only thing I didn’t like it’s much wider than the cab and looks “off” I prefer the stepside beds

Ummm very unusual

Re: Random Photos ‘You took’
At first glance I knew it was a super beetle body, but on a model A frame with duece grille. But he cut off the front clip and used it on the rear. No doubt lots of work but that turned out to be alright.

Re: Random Photos ‘You took’
Definitly needs a contoured grille, like a Topolino or Anglia, maybe ah Airflow. Visor ain't workin' either

That reminds me of this bad boy C-46 that I refueled every Thursday in Alaska when I was 19.

Saved a couple of bucks today. My timing light quit yesterday. Bought it off the tool truck in 1986. It was not cheap back then. Figured what the heck, so today I took it apart. The thin uninsulated wire had broken just outside of the handle. Lost about 4" off the pick up cord, but it was an easy fix. Ready for another 37 yrs of service! ;)

Here's an interesting unit, wooden handle. If it's for pushing snow maybe they put chains on the tires. Maybe the engine is just for weight. I can't imagine that thing getting much traction. Very cute, though |

My thought is I wouldn’t use a single axle anything behind a motorhome . Just asking for trouble . |

This truck delivered a large press to a local manufacturing plant. It has a rear engine as well as the regular tractor. How would you like to buy a full set of tires for that! LockDoc |
Re: Random Photos ‘You took’
It’s pretty interesting how versatile and flexible those are to load/unload big big things…

a '60's era fiat 500 is only around 1000-1200 lbs. seriously doubt you need trailer brakes for something so lite, especially behind a coach. my quad hauler is a single axle rated at 3500lbs and we have just over 2000lbs of quads on it when loaded. then i stick my car topper boat on top of it as well, and a couple hundred more lbs of gear and assorted junk. and i don't have trailer brakes either, but my tow pig is a little over twice the weight of the trailer loaded, so we're still legal....in BC anyways. them tires look similar to mine and are 15 inchers, but HD, D-load rated for 2540lbs per tire. mind ya, i rarely exceed 55mph, and not cause of the trailer, hard to go faster than 55 with a T400, 4:56's and a 205 t-case... also run a 8" drop hitch to tie the truck to the trailer Attachment 2293649 |

My comment about singles (I own one) behind motor homes is you don’t feel much if a tire goes you screwed . Seen several singles destroyed because of driver error . Even with my dual axle trailer behind the coach I watch the rear camera religiously. I have no problem towing a single behind my car or truck wouldn’t do it with the motorhome I even have an air brake setup hooked into the Jeep if I tow that . It has an air cylinder that actuates the brake peddle . And also stops the vehicle if it detaches from the coach. This is from an RV resource site looks like most of Canada has the same rules https://support.rvpartshop.com/suppo...state-province |

I think I've posted this before. If so, here it is again. If I recall correctly he then hooked the truck to the motorhome.

last yr we had to stop at a milfoil inspection at the scales cause we had our boat. the CVSE guy said i was fine with my set-up. and ya, i know what you mean about not feeling it. with just my trailer and no camper, you don't even notice the trailer back there, which is why i constantly mirror check and run tires that are HD and never more than a few yrs old cvse rules for here; Brakes not needed if gross trailer weight of 1,400 kg (3,080 Ibs) or less – Brakes are required if the trailer and its load weigh more than 50% of the licensed weight of the vehicle towing it. |

I stopped in on these two older brothers who's place I've passed by for years. first time earlier, I met Josh and only saw what was out front. He welcomed me to stroll through the back, as he had his supper waiting. But I declined saying I'd rather go back with him (get the royal tour). I stopped back in on Monday and this time it was Ivan who met me. We talked a while, then needed to get busy, and he offered me to talk a walk in back. This time I did. I got 90, I think, pictures. What a treasure trove of old equipment they have gathered. I need to start a thread on this place |

This is random, but this little toyota lives a few houses down from me. Been admiring it as I walk or jog by for a couple years. Never saw it drive until this week. It was driven by an elderly gentleman probably in his 80’s at least. Probably bought it new. Definitely taken care of. It would be a perfect little parts store runner.
