I finally found an inexpensive lunette ring/Pintle ring. I already had the vertical channel piece to adjust the height. I’m thinking of using it on the casket/beer cooler trailer fab. $20 delivered to the house. Cheapest one I could find retail was $56 plus tax.
I have a design in mind for the casket trailer, but I’m conflicted on whether I should make it match The Road Ranger, or make it match the Missing Linc. The color red is different. The casket will be some combination of red, black, and silver, I think, and the fenders over the double axles will be red. The trailer will be all aluminum, and I probably won’t paint it.
The Road Ranger has bullet hole wheels, and the Missing Linc has steelies. Actually, I have enough spare wheels that if I pick up a couple roadworthy scrap tires, I could make a set of steelies and a set of bullet holes, depending on which contraption I pull it with.
I’m happy to say, I’m getting far enough into my retirement, that this is a big decision for me. It will take me time and research.
