Hey, that looks familiar!! Glad to see that it is being used!!
Yes sir.
Hey, in case this is useful for anyone else, the tongue limit for an extended superhitch with load leveler is 1200lbs. The tongue weight of an 8x16 Iron Bull deck over trailer empty is 450lbs, so that gives me a little bit to play with... maybe if I backed it onto the trailer and kept the front wheels aft of the trailer axles it might just work! And then I could use the trailer for hauling rocks/dirt/brush/equipment...

How long is your Super Hitch? (I was running a 48")
Same... 48". I think I was living dangerously with the race car and trailer... never weighed it. The car was a rear engine and only weighed 1500lbs total, but all the tools, spares, gas, bike, compressor etc... were in the front (except the tires), so the tongue weight limit was probably blown big time!

Yeah, I'm pretty sure I was well over the limit of that hitch also.
For Fall Colors
With, the front heater on, the driver window cranked down, and, the kick vent kicked, kind of day.
@Tank5 I remember you telling me that the paint overspray on the front frame crossmember would come off, well, you were right, and the factory enamel turns out be in great shape.

Fall clean up made easy 
Started removing primer that the previous owner sprayed over a lot of my 40.
A little acetone on a rag and some periodic rinsing and then a through wash.
Then some Marine Polish.
I have a lot of work to do but it's a good workout.

Added a set of kioto h4s, cleaned her up really good, snapped a photo of our dog in the pilots seat as my daughter was having a little fun
Tires are too clean…..
Watching snow accumulate on Lake Peak.
Absolutely! Our goal with friend in Ohio is to refurbish/repair the 40 such that we can safely drive it back to California.A great alternative to trailers is driving your cruiser

Finally found the correct large split grommet for the engine bay. It fits both areas on the passenger and drivers side.
Marveled at how quickly the garage fills up. Plus one more on the side yard.
