Hey she is every bit as mean as a Grey Squirrel.
Probably not got the fury ounce for ounce of a red squirrel but I am not sure anything on the planet does.

"Hard top" made up. It's actually just a fancy set of bows, that a canvas cover goes over but once we spar varnished it Stagg decided to paint it none the less. Looks pretty sharp really.

Interesting picture, which is leaning? The trailer or the shop?

The trailer(s) are leaning.
Parking them on a hillside gives us more sport than we would get on a boring old flat surface.

Nice icy cold morning Bantam all hitched up for the 180 some odd mile self deployment to Oklahoma for East Wind.
As anticipated, the little fella was just the thing for creeping around the forests getting closer to the firewood cutting than the M880.

That trailer turned out quite nice, tracks well going over roads and dirt, and is not a hindrance when driving. Almost unnoticeable except when climbing the steepest of hills.
Being low to the ground helps a lot when loading and unloading.
P.S. The heater in the truck was worth every dollar, and the three install/removal cycles needed to install components.

The trailer came out looking great!
