As you may recall, I !!!error: Indecipherable SUB-paragraph formatting!!! made from the back half of a Bell Systems utility truck, !!!error: Indecipherable SUB-paragraph formatting!!! , and !!!error: Indecipherable SUB-paragraph formatting!!! .
Well I wasn’t entirely sure what I wanted to do with it next, needed to put a !!!error: Indecipherable SUB-paragraph formatting!!! , and recently discovered !!!error: Indecipherable SUB-paragraph formatting!!! that requires a complete bathroom renovation.
So the trailer was thrown up on Craigslist, and the first person who came to look at it bought it. He’s going to use the box on the custom ‘47 Ford rat-rod pickup he is building for his grandson’s first car. He needs to get a move on with the project too, as the kid is already 18 months old.
I paid $150.00 for it, spent another $227 getting it safe to tow, and ended up selling it for $600. While turning a profit was never my goal, it is nice when I can put more money into the “dumb idea fund” than I took out.
Honestly I’m not sad I sold it. It was a fun & amusing toy, exactly like I’d hoped for !!!error: Indecipherable SUB-paragraph formatting!!! . But having one less set of projects around the house is probably all for the best right now.

Sad to see it go, but more money = good! :)

It was a really cool trailer. I’m both glad it was too far away for me to buy it ... and sad that it was too far away for me to buy it.

That is an amazing idea. I want to see that thing.

What “thing” are you talking about?

It’s nice when you get to make mon on having fun. It doesn’t happen often for me though as I tend to buy reeeeeally stupid stuff.
Although I guess delivering Pizza qualifies as making money at having fun.
