Today I and my faithful sidekick, along with two possums, took the M927 up to Redstone to pick up the latest object of my affliction to whit an unidentified command trailer of questionable parentage.
While there we met up with fellow member kdaniels and his buddy who were recovering his cherry M923.
We did a pre-ops check on it and then slaved it off with my truck......it fired right up and appears to be brand new although it had some miles on the clock......in my opinion they rebuilt it but did not change out the speedo......it's that cherry. Hardtop, dropside, new tires and a very nice three color camo paint job.
After he got squared away I hooked up to "Frankentrailer" and headed back to "Akenback Acres" otherwise known as FOB Wreckerman.
I had never pulled one of these type trailers before and had some misgivings but it followed the M927 like a baby duck behind its momma.
We made it home with no issues.
I dropped it up on the back fourty that we are clearing for pasture with a good view of what I hope will be good grazing for Bambi and friends.
It has some small ports on two sides that will be used for sniping at meat critters once the new grass comes in.
I talked to Kieth a few hours ago and he was almost to his LZ and had only a few minor issues.
He promised to bring his new prize to the 2013 GA Rally (which we are all looking forward to with baited breath).
Here are some pics for your consideration.
