I have a tackle box(snatch block) you can use if it would help any. I can bring it to SWB's tomorrow.

I have that big block I got at the rally 4 years ago sitting in the barn that could be loaned out.

I went ahead and bid high on some pallets out of Lockbourne today. Won a few.
So, trip is for sure as of now.

Looks like I won 4 pallets. I can condense them to two pallets. So will have plenty of room. I will call GL after I pay the invoice(just over $11K) and try to do a pick-up for around the 5th or 6th of March.
Kenny, what do I need to load the wrecker body? I have a winch on the trailer(front of truck also), do I need to make a flat bed about 8' x 6' to strap the body on and winch it all onto the trailer or is there lift at its location?

Phil, SWB has a backhoe that can be used to load with. He will have to be home for it to be used though. I have not driven it yet.
I guess he doesn't care what the bottom of it looks like!

Swb has a backhoe to load it with. We will make sure there is plenty of help. I just hope the load day is not while I am in Gainesville, FL for the NHRA Gatornationals (Mar 13-16).

I dunno, I never cared to ask. Maybe the next time the neighbor kills a dog, I will get to bury the neighbor!

Yes, just give me a heads up on your trip times and I will make arrangements for loading. You won't want to try and get close to the barn as I'm sure the water and mud will be around 18 inches deep when it thaws out. I'll bring the body out to you in the driveway.

Thanks to all who support my lunacy. Boiled steaks are on me this year.
