    Still have an empty trailer from Northwest to East Coast

    I've already left the Northwest and am in Nevada now. My trailer is almost full. I can take anything that is no bigger than 6'x3'.

    Still have an empty trailer from Northwest to East Coast

    I'm leaving in a couple days from Eureka, NV. Traveling on Hwy 50 to Cedar City, UT then down to Albuquerque, then I-40 to I-81 and up to Baltimore then to NJ. I am flexible on my route and can take I-70 as well.

    Mighty Mite on the obstacle course at NWMF

    I couldn't tell you the mgp. It has plenty of power to zip over the obstacles. I even had forty fuel cans packed in the back at one point which was no problem at all for the Mite. The Westy in the background is actually a VW Syncrho. There are usually a quite a few Synchros at NWMF.

    Pictures from the Portland MVPA convention...

    As far as shows go, I was disappointed. The space was small and all of the vehicles on display were almost perfect. It wasn't worth the two hour drive from Northwest Mogfest in Sheridan, OR up to Portland. The MTA of NJ puts on a better show and Aberdeen blows away the MVPA show. Just my 2 cents

    Mighty Mite on the obstacle course at NWMF

    The Westy is actually a VW Synchro. There were about fifteen Synchros at the event.

    Mighty Mite on the obstacle course at NWMF

    Actually...I took my Unimog U1300L in the water and when it dried off, it shrank. How was I supposed to know it said, "Do not tumble dry."?

    Mighty Mite on the obstacle course at NWMF

    Well, I took my Mite on the obstacle course at Northwest Mogfest. I was able to keep up with all of the Pinzgauers and most of the Unimogs. I am totally surprised at how well the Mite performed. I had it on three wheels, two wheels, and even in mid air. For those of you who only use your Mite...

    M715 parts available...let me know ASAP

    I'm up in Sheridan, Oregon at a Unimog event. The owner here has some M715 parts that he wants to get rid of. He has some rear bed fenders, doors, a grill and some other body parts. If anyone wants these, call me so I can throw them on my trailer. I'm leaving within a couple hours...

    Need help on mite carb

    I found that my carb flooded a lot which is a common problem, especially on inclines. I converted it over to a Solex carb and it runs much better now.

    Still have an empty trailer from Northwest to East Coast

    I'll be hauling an empty trailer from the Portland, Oregon area to my home in Eureka, NV and then onto New Jersey. Email me if you have anything that has to be hauled. My rates are good, just cover my fuel. Thanks!

    Austin Champ Pickup

    Kenny... So far, the Champ is towing just fine on my trailer. I did get hit with some cross winds around Orlando which made me reduce my speed to 55mph.

    Tire Width on a unimog 404

    Like Chris said...definitely be careful what you use as chain points. I recall that I used the front bumper and the frame for the rear. You have to compress the springs quite a bit but it works. On my U1300L, I ran the chain through the front pin and through the rear of the frame. When...

    Tire Width on a unimog 404

    A Mog is too heavy for a tow dolly and you would probably burn out the rear diff. They weren't made for going fast. Your best bet is to trailer it. A 3/4 ton pickup and a tandem axle trailer with a 7,000 lb capacity is your minimum. For exact dimensions, try contacting some of the people...
