[FC] A Rampside Trip

[N2VZD at aol.com]

i have used my rampy for hauling gas in 3  50 gal drums at a time for the 
boat.  i also used to sell used wheel weight lead melted into bricks to the 
fishing shops up in oswego ny about 30 miles north of me.  it was usually about 
1000 pounds at a time.  i have hauled heavy ham transmitters, engines etc all 
over with it.  if i ever restored it i would have to buy another one to use.  i 
made that mistake with a nice 62 vette once. i used to really enjoy travel in 
it, then restored it.  after the restoration, i was afraid to drive it anywhere 
,and did not enjoy it,so sold it.so my take on this is to keep it nice but 
use it, drive it, enjoy it, thats why they made them in the first place. if my 
stuff is ever on a trailer , it is stolen..the rampy was driven over 5000 miles 
last year.. regards, tim colson
