If you need a spare tire, I went too martins this morning and got a smoking deal on a spare tire. 75 bucks for a 15 inch tire and rim, and it matched

Looking good Lyle. I don't know what guys do to trailers but if I was looking at that in an area where there is water, I would be putting a bead of silicone all along the floor. You have already thought about that as you are such a planner. Good luck with the "dressing up" so to speak!!

We had a blast in our last trailer... turned it into a Nightclub on Wheels so my underage boys could hang out with all of us in the evenings watching sled videos, shooting the $hit with the boys over bevy's, and learning a lot from my good sled buddies (most of which they never told their mother!). With LED lighting and TV's so affordable now with a little creativity you can make a trailer quite luxurious without breaking the bank. So what if its cheap from China, at least you don't worry if it breaks. Have fun with your project! Lake 062.jpg Lake 044.jpg Lake 046.jpg

I clearly don’t have your money lol
What do you mean? It cost me 60 bucks from ching chong china for the lights no dimmer. The rachet straps on the wall is on e track from princess auto same as floor. The pvc pipe that is capped at end has holes drilled and aimed at floor at angle so when furnace is on it blows under sleds to melt faster. The seats are out of a friends trailer that was destroyed.

Well the roof is done, not overly impressed as they left spots I will need too touch up however they were cheap get what you pay for. I was quoted 1.00 a square foot at G&J , including foam an paint. Went with the cheaper company for foam and paint for 80 cents per square foot. Next up paint the walls white and then heat accessories .

Well the good news is that it sold to a Dad with a couple of teenage boys who were thrilled with their Dad's new purchase! Having fun with family and friends is what it's all about.
