So this past weekend my fiance and I took possession of a '66 Shasta that has been used as a technical trailer/bunkroom at one the race tracks here in the state of Ohio. After replacing bearings, races, wheels, locks and other assorted items we managed to tow our new family member from east of Cleveland back to Columbus where she is now resting behind the house. It was a tight fit and our Subaru was very hesitant at first to have 'Madison Brown' on back but we came to an agreement and the ole Forrester brought her home with pride.
Now begins the idea part. She is in fairly good shape and appears to be solid. No leaks that we've found and towed straight. We aren't necessarily looking to 'restore' her but more turn her into a fly fishing trailer on wheels. Bed for us, the stove (still works) along with solar panels for battery recharging eventually.
Glad to be here and really looking forward to learning a lot!
