Trip of a lifetime.....

As some of you might remember Susan and I bought off of eBay the little 1974 20' Argosy Moho that had a fresh 350 engine installed but not yet running. Well we finally found time to go pick it up. Needless to say it made for a very interesting road trip!

The options we had for bringing the Argosy from eastern Tennessee to central Arkansas were to A) hire a trucking company B) fabricate a tow bar and tow it back or C) find a trailer and haul it back ourselves. We couldn't afford option A and my concerns in fabricating a tow bar was the lack of brakes on the towed vehicle so we settled for option C. Of course that option didn't turn out as easy as I had hoped because my first choice in a trailer which was a gooseneck ended up being unavailable during the time frame we could make the trip. At the last minute I located and was able to borrow a 16' dovetail that had hydraulic brakes. However when I pulled the master cylinder cap it became readily apparent that the brakes were beyond repair. So......I ended up buying new electric brake backing plates complete with shoes and magnets and installed them. Fortunately the brake drums were setup for electric brakes as well as hydraulic. So $125 and a complete rewire of the trailer wiring later we were ready to make the trip. The trip to eastern Tennessee was pretty much uneventful other than the horrible roads we suffered through in Arkansas. With the empty trailer on back the ride was so bad Susan was having 2nd thoughts of making the trip with me. Fortunately once we got into Tennessee the roads improved dramatically.

The night before we were to pickup the Argosy it started raining so wouldn't you know it we had to deal with the rain during the loading process.

Being as this Argosy wasn't running we had to manually winch it up onto the trailer. Right from the get go I could tell it was going to be a long process using a come-a-long. The first thing we found was the wheel track was about 3" wider than the trailer. That didn't concern me to much as the trailer didn't have fenders but it did make it a little more difficult to get it up onto the trailer. Susan got to "ride" the Argosy up onto the trailer while she performed steering duties. I don't remember if she made any comments about the quality of the ride but I'm sure it wasn't all that great!

After winching it up the first 6 feet or so I talked the seller into bringing his Isuzu Trooper (?) over and we hooked a chain from the Argosy to his hitch and he helped pull it up onto the trailer. Since we were doing this in a gravel parking lot he spun his wheels a few times until he put it in 4-wheel drive!

But with his help we managed to get it fully up onto the trailer. Even though we only had a 16' trailer we were able to load the Argosy far enough forward to be able to balance the load properly and still keep the rear wheels far enough from the end of the trailer. I'm really glad we had a weight distributing hitch as it made a big difference in creating the proper load balance overall.

Between the humidity and the spitting rain I managed to stay soaking wet during the loading process I think the loading process took somewhere around 3 hours overall. I don't think that was to bad considering all that was involved in tying it down properly and safely.

Now the fun begins.............

For obvious reasons we wanted to use a trailer with brakes to provide additional braking power due to the increased weight we were hauling. The Argosy weighs somewhere around 6,800 lbs and the trailer was 1,500 lbs. The truck weighs around 6,200 lbs and then add in two adults, luggage, tools, etc we end up having a rolling load of around 15,000 lbs. As we pulled out on the road I did a quick check of the brakes and wasn't happy with what I felt. It seemed that there was little stopping power. As we went down a small grade to the next major road I started pumping the brakes and realized at that time that we did NOT have the braking power needed to haul this thing home. I calmly (ok maybe not so calmly) mentioned to Susan that we didn't have brakes and we probably should do something about it. I know the trailer brakes were working because when I was trying to stop going down that small incline I could see the trailer tires lock up and slide when I hit the brakes!

We stopped at the first available parking lot to try and change a tire and while I did that Susan went and made some phone calls. I couldn't budge the lug nuts so we were then directed to a nearby tire place and they put the spare on for me. While there they helped us get in touch with a Firestone service shop that was a few miles away. When Susan called them they said "sure they could help us". They had a truck just coming off the lift and if we could be there in 30 minutes they'd take care of us. Boy did they! We got there (very slowly I might add) and after we unhooked the trailer they put the truck on the lift while Susan and I went and had lunch. When we came back they gave us the bad news. The right rear axle seal had been leaking and the shoes were saturated. On top of that the front pads were glazed and the rotors were to thin to turn. So here we are 650 miles from home with the heaviest rolling load I've ever towed and with no brakes except trailer brakes. We were extremely lucky in that the Firestone place not only took the time to check the brakes for us they were able to get them fixed in less than 3 hours. We were actually on the road headed home about 2:30 pm.

Once we actually got onto the Interstate we found that anything much higher than about 55 mph would cause the trailer to sway a little which made me uncomfortable. We ended up settling on 53 mph as our top speed. Originally my only real concern on the trip home was how well I would be able to control my speed going down some of the long grades in Tennessee on I-81 & I-40. Well it turns out the only thing I had to worry about were how long it would take to climb those long grades! Our truck is a 1988 3/4 ton Ford with a 7.3 non-turbo diesel. Its old, a little tired but was up to the task. We found that going down the grades the diesel engine did a great job of engine braking which helped slow the truck. On some down grades I actually had to accelerate to keep moving down hill. During the entire 650 mile return trip I only had to pass two vehicles which made me happy to say the least! I'm not sure what kind of mpg we got on the return trip and I don't think I want to know

I was able to test the new brakes one time. We were coming off an entrance ramp that was located on a curve and as I accelerated (ok crawled) down the ramp I checked my side view mirror only to see two 18 wheelers in the right lane with a half dozen more in the left lane. There was no room for the fast moving vehicles in the right lane to go should I try to merge. The entrance ramp was a short one and at the end of it was a bridge rail so I quickly slammed on the brakes and we came to a quick stop. YEAH brakes

Once we made it into the flat lands of eastern Arkansas the only problems we had were the various rain storms that we ran into. Wouldn't you know it the windshield wipers decided to fail at the worst possible moment during a horrendous down pour. We were lucky to make it to the shoulder because the rain hadn't slowed the 18 wheelers or cars down and I couldn't see past the windshield. That was probably the most nerve racking moment of the trip for me.

All in all the trip could have been planned a little better but overall it was a good trip and we really enjoyed (mostly) the looks and comments we got from people. Here it is at home.

You're a brave man.
I'm glad it all worked out for you, and that you found the brake problem before you got on the interstate!

MOST STRESSFUL Trip of a Lifetime!

Brad forgot two words in his title, added above! I think we each lost a few years off our lives over this one. It was a white-knuckle trip all the way back. But we got home safely! We will not be doing that again, for sure!

Brad being the mechanical guy he is, posted all of the "technical" photos and skipped over the other neat aspects of the trip! So here are some other things I took pics of along the way.

This sighting in Tennessee got the trip off to an absolutely PERFECT and fortuitous start!

We saw this RV on our way up - he was carrying a full-size cruising Harley on the back of the RV along with a bicycle, then towing the Jeep carrying another motorcycle and stuff we couldn't figure out. Amazing.

When we got to Kingsport Saturday morning, we stopped to check directions and I saw this rainbow. It was a whole rainbow, but the right end came down right where we picked up our new little baby!

We saw no Airstreams on the road on the way up, but on the way back, we saw two in quick succession on I-81 east of Knoxville. The first one was being flat-towed and I am still amazed I got that shot off in time.

Hee hee, Debbie - I told Brad we needed to put the hopped-up 454 in it and go around collecting pink slips at the street races! It's a REAL sleeper, ha ha!!

Okay, here's the rest of the trip. Here's something cool we saw on the way back. For those of you who do not know Cirque du Soleil, you MUST get a DVD and check them out. They are absolutely amazing.

This is the Argosy moho and trailer outside Memphis on I-40 I didn't get such a good pic of on our last trip. We stopped and asked about them, and I have the name and phone number of the fellow who owns them if anyone is interested. We have no knowledge of condition other than what these pics show.

First off Susan, you are very quick with a camera. I'm impressed, and great photos. I don't think I have managed to get a photo yet of an Airstream on the road as we travel. Donna just shakes her head and laughs now when I start to go through the motions.

What an adventure you two had. I'll bet you were exhausted mentally and physically when you got home. These are the kinds of trips you can relate for years to come as you sit around the campfire. There's nothing wrong with that, now that you have it safely home of course. Is this a longer term project or something you intend to tackle pronto? More pictures of it would be great.

Brad - when you started mentioning that you had the fellow assist to tow it on with his Isuzu and you said he was spinning his wheels in the gravel I had visions of you saying that he managed to knock out the window or something. Glad that went well. Man, you guys sure went to a ton of effort for that little puppy. It owes you big time for rescuing it.

Thanks, and congratulations.

Barry,

After the trip both of us were mentally and physically drained. We've got a lot going on right now and this trip didn't help any

My biggest concern for the trip was that we would have some kind of break down and have to find a place to store the Argosy until we could make another try. Needing the brake job just about met that criteria, fortunately throwing money at it solved that problem, and a lot of luck of course

I hadn't even thought about breaking a window when he spun his tires . Thats an image I don't even want to think about. Fortunately he was parallel and off to the side of the Argosy so that might have helped. Once he put it in 4-wheel drive the wheel spinning stopped.

We're going to be pulling the 350 out and replacing it with a rebuilt 454. The plans are to use the Argosy to pull our race car trailer which is being made out of a 1974 31' Excella 500 trailer. I figure out rolling load is going to be somewhere around 15,000 lbs so I don't think the 350 thats currently in the Moho is up to the task. I'd love to throw a diesel in but the odds of finding one we can afford are pretty slim. Besides I have the 454 sitting in a donor truck ready to pull.

We'll keep a post going detailing our progress. For the next few months though I think I'll catch up on my sleep.......

Brad

And it will be a longer-term project. We were going to pull the Excella with our 1953 Chevy one-ton panel truck, but this will take the place of the Chevy (which was a longer-term project as well).

One Chevy panel truck for sale soon! Needs restoration, but very cool!

What a great trip. 53 miles per hour is two less than Chummy's top speed, now you can appreciate all the wonderful things we see at that speed.

What a nice family you have ... Triumphs and Airstreams ... and all the other critters. Hope to see you down the road, and you might even be easy to recognize.

I've been to that Airstream Dealer. That's in Cookeville, TN. I've also driven I-40 from the NC to Nashville, TN. You had quite a trip with that load.

Thanks for sharing the fun , and good luck with the restorations.

Now that you mention it, that is where I bought our Airstream! Nice folks. Treated us really well. I'd recommend them to any body...well, I guess I just did.

Thanks so much for sharing the trip. You two have more guts than I do. While you might have lost sleep on the way home, I would have run out of clean underwear! I am guessing that the roads home were no better than the roads to pick the vehicle up. (I have a keen sense for the obvious).

Anyway, great pics and a wonderful story.

Rivet An Adventure in Moving

Hi Brad and Susan,

Remember when Uhaul had that painted on their trucks? Then they realized that adventure was the last thing anyone wanted during moving. Same for Airstream pickup.

Thanks for the photo documentary. Glad you are back home safely. Agree about the 454. Good as the 350 is, the big blocks are outstanding engines. I look forward to your progress.

Vaughan

Chaplain, actually 53 mph was our TOP speed

We probably averaged no better than 50 mph for the trip and possibly a little less. I think it took us something like 18 hours of driving (with gas stops) to make the return trip.

All in all I'm glad we made it back and now I'm looking forward to when I can actually start working on it.

Brad
