Here's one country it looks like CLC won't be visiting.........

African country set to make breaking wind a crime | Mail Online

Hmmm

So would Jess be a criminal by serving em chili?

What's that fall under aiding & abetting, premeditated?

How do you convict?
Whoever smelt it dealt it..

What happens if it truly was the dog?

Is breaking wind in an enclosed place, like an elevator, a multiple offense?

Would The Walking farts be on the same level as a drive by shooting?

What is the punishment? White bread? Forced Beano intake?

They must have a serious digestive problem there to enact a law to outlaw a bodily function. What's next? blinking?

Cool. Thanks Nolen.

I'm planning for one more like this, but a little bit longer and with a full hardtop:

Depending on funds, long term I may try for one of the following two looks:

Side hinged or front hinged? That is the question...

With your 40? Or are you gonna buy a 45?

 

[77TLCFJ40]

Check out the trailer thread link in post 2067.

Its a camper/trailer made from 2 FJ40 rear tubs and 2 hardtops. Imagine a 45 that has no front doors and the front looks like the back. Still just pie in the sky at this point.

Yeah I've been following that link. When i saw the pics of the 45 I thought you had a master plan for your 40 or was going to buy a 45 and convert the roof .

 

[77TLCFJ40]

I posted the 45s as examples of how the trailers roof might lift for added interior space.

A queen size inflatable camping mattress will fit inside a 40 (side to side). See 1st pic stolen from the trailer forum. So imagine the mattress on a platform built level with the inner fender wells with storage underneath. If the roof does not lift, I might not be able to sit up in bed?? I'll use a SUV tent or modified easy-up with sides and a floor connected to the back of the trailer to have room for luggage, changing, etc. See pic 2

thunder snow.....I just laughed out loud and my wifes cat, sitting on my shoulder, clawed the sheiit out of my shoulder.......still laughing

 

[77TLCFJ40]

I have experienced the thunder snow phenomenon. Winter Park, CO Spring Break 1983. I had just learned to ski the day before and then there was the first low rumble and everything turned white. Thunder snow usually results in a white-out. Essentially everyone gets CSS disease and skis of a cliff or into a tree. What a blast.

and my wifes cat, sitting on my shoulder,

ya'll been reading that kharman ghia book?

18 gauge sheetmetal
2 amber and 2 red side marker lights
Left side spare tire carrier - JRob's bent one might work? You still got it JRob?
Taillights
2.5" rear lift springs
Square tube for the tongue
Lunette or other hitch
Pintle Hitch receiver mount
Future: trailer axle with brakes, tongue box, water tank, pump, inverter, batteries, ship-to-shore plug, etc

The "parts I have" list is a whole lot longer!

 

[wngrog]

Realistically, when would you want to get started on this?

I would spring over with stock springs.

I would also pay the money up front for a new brake axle. They are really cheap.
