no we keep getting warnings...but its always the same copyoothgeye said:I wonder how many states have laws about hoods, and if those same states would pick on open engine compartment old hot rods?
How hard is it to find another hood you can cut?
Do you get a fine when pulled?
Onewheelsqueel said:Not a regular poster on here, but Im a daily lurker. Figured I'd post up a few pics of my fun ride. Its a '63 Corvan (the working brother to the Greenbrier) a former South Western Bell van that came from Arizona about ten years ago. Its nice and solid, but will wave at you. Its actually the second time Ive owned it, and it will stay with us for a long time. The whole family loves cruising in it. Finally got to take it to a two day show about a month ago and actually camp in the tent trailer with my youngest son. The single wheel tent trailer is a '60s Heilite tent trailer ( I get into vintage trailers as well, particularly single wheel trailers, Ive bought and sold quite a few). Kevin
Took the van and the '57 Sears Allstate trailer up to the local cruise night with a couple bikes as well over the summer.
Onewheelsqueel said:Not like a usual trailer, it doesnt hinge lt to rt. It will swing wide basicly because it is so far behind the back wheels of the vehicle. So you have to watch it in turns as not to hit anything on the outside of the turn. If that makes sense. The wheel will swivel around in a circle.

Sooo great. Love it. one of my favourite pick ups.
man, looking through this thread makes me jealous. But drivin old us cars is unfortunatly very hard over here. everything's just too small, and paying the fuel would kill my bank account

yea i get it then its not like a usual trailer where it pivots on the ball on the hitch.
if you back up right, it goes right, where a regular trailer is the opposite

They mount at two points so they don't swing lt to rt, the pivot at the mounts allowing the trailer to go higher, or lower that's it. It stays in line with the body with no lt to rt flex.
