In Post #3, that was a 49 chevy sedan! The trailer even had on awning! Took about an hour to set it up. Shortly after that picture, we purchased a new Ford Maverick - 71 I think. It was a towing beast (ha-ha). Had a 170 ci 6 cylinder. It ran so hot going up the hills that I routed the windshield washer hose to a spray nozzle on the front of the radiator - when going up a hill I turned on the windshield washer to spray water on the front of the radiator. At the top of every hill, I would stop and refill that little reservoir (maybe 2 quarts?).

Ah yes...those were the "good old days"!
