Hey Dude-
Welcome to the forums! Nice to officially have you on-board. Like the new logo! You should use it as your avatar. I just spent another $1,300.00 on the Tradewind today so we need more cash!

Likewise. Sorry we'll be missing the bluegrass fest (We called it Winterhawk.) Amanda and I always had a great time going site-to-site checking out all the jam sessions. I hear you guys will be making some noise too. Wish we could be there. Maybe you should use the search function on this site and plug in the word "musician" and see what pops. Lots of talent here in many, many fields.

Have fun!

The tradewind has arrived
Hi All,
just wanted to send out an email to let everyone know that our 1960 Tradewind has finally made it home to connecticut and begun it's transformation. She made the drive home from upstate NY without a hitch thanks to the crew over at Chevy Ave Restorations, Thanks Don! Check my website for updates on the progress of this classic trailer

Look forward to getting her out to her first rally in June

That was very clever
She made it home without an issue for clarification for the rest of us as Chuck has pointed out

Hey everyone! Chuck is sitting in the dunking booth! Look out Chuck, that's my brother you are messin' with, and no that is not a guitar in that case! Actually though, the tow set was pretty close to duct tape. We ran her home all the way on nothing but a bare ball. It's been a while since I towed like that with some thing this size. When I get tonight I will post a photo of the other Trade Wind we found on our way up!

The important thing is that you got it home! Congratulations again. Have you named it yet? When are you going back to rescue its sibling? Inquiring minds want to know.
