That someday FINALLY arrived!! He's been working on it this spring and summer - not doing a complete renovation but at least getting it running and recovering the seats - it actually looked pretty good!
We put it on Craigs List and our local neighborhood website and didn't get much action on it for a couple of weeks! And then all of a sudden the calls started coming in!
To make a long story short - he sold the jeep - for an excellent price!! He was thrilled to get $4400 out of it and I always told him that whenever he fixed it up and sold it, he could use the money towards his old chevelle project!
About the same time, we decided to sell the trailer we use to put the Razor on - it fit the Can Am ATV perfect but since the Razor is bigger, Glenn would have to back it on using ramps as the back ramp had to be taken off and then tie it down as it hung over a little bit. It didn't take him a long time to do it but I suggested it would be so much nicer to have a bigger trailer that he could just drive it up on!
So again, we listed the trailer and got lots of offers - I held out for what we wanted and it soon sold! Now it was time to buy a new trailer and Glenn really wanted an aluminum one - they have a dealership in Lake George so we went over and picked one out! But of course didn't buy it until we knew the old one was sold!
After the new owners picked up the trailer, I told Glenn to go ahead and go over and buy the new one which he did in typical Glenn fashion! Because the trailer with the spare tire and attachment was $300 higher, he chose to just buy the one without those accessories. But after talking to the gal inside, he noticed they didn't have any blinds in their office. So soon an exchange took place - Glenn had some blinds in the shop (who knows how long he's held on to them!!) and he said he would put blinds on the 3 windows in exchange for a spare tire with the attachment!! DEAL!
It's a great looking trailer and so much easier to load the Razor now!
