NO the trailer frame N tires are fixed position. The wheel buckets for car being towed are separate and on a swivel. My problem was/is the tires. Those are L60 -14 (made for the rear of the car) I wanted the steamroller look. They are too wide for the webb/tire tie downs. Barely extended down the side walls. What made them slide off to the outside edge was a mystery. Adding bungee's to the inside of webb and connecting to the frame of the wheel buckets kept them on for the last leg of my trip with a chain backup.

B52 and crew! Friday is setup, people claiming their spots to park or watch the show, setting up tents, many displays such as the Ford Mustang alley, GM has it's mobile display. Most people are at work, so alot of normal traffic mixed with the DC influence. Usually make a run all the way down EARLY Friday while traffic is still moving, and figure out where everything is. Official Dream Cruise merchandise tents are scattered along the route. By noon Woodward both days is a parking lot for most of the cruise route southern end. Birmingham to Pontiac is usually moving pretty good and Pontiac area is usually a lil more forgiving of burnouts. (Cmon we have Roadkill drag racing right on Woodward with Funny cars N dragsters, the weekend before, You should drive the Pontiac end sunday to truly appreciate the tire destroying carnage of the last week) So this year, Frosty is retired and can make the early Friday cruise this year!!! Woot IndyJoe is taking both days off this year to meet up with B52 n crew!!!! Sooo as none of us are even familiar with Eastpointe, we are going to ask you to meet us at 12mi and Woodward. There is an official Dream Cruise merchandise tent (east side just before the 12mi light in Northbound side of Woodward) 9am? Everbody stock up on the T shirts N gear. We should be able to make most if not a complete cruise of the route. Frosty needs to be back on the road to cross the state to participate in a cruise on that side of the mitten and then drive home to be ready to meet up with us for the Saturday "day of show" cruise. We head down early and stop at the 12mi gear tent for remaining part of our group to get their gear. Stop at anything interesting on the way back. As we don't have Woodward parking this year, We might cruise up to Flint with Frosty to the Bricks and parking with the Widetrackers. I will be home watching the 7 local ABC coverage to finish the Dream Cruise. Extending the invite for any Forever Pontiac members that would like to meet up with us. Now's the time! Would make a great group pic.

put in a relay for 12 volts when spinning over starts good now, whenit started it had a ticking noise maybe a stuck lifter? its always something
-
Is it justA me or won’t that trailer pull and push on each of the gto front wheels when you turn ????
And break the hold down straps ????
Fixing the front wheels down on a ridged tow dolly makes the back wheels scrub and you might get away with that towing the sunbird , but the gto is wayyyyy heavier -
Well done mate
-
Damn it man, what a day! Glad you and the goat are good bro. It's really cool that you went all the way back to clean up the mess. Most people wouldn't have bothered. Good job brother!
-
Sorry I missed this bro. Not gonna happen this year. Like we talked about the other day, justa to much going on right now bro. Maybe next year guys.
-
Thanks for the reply. I'll talk to my buddy about both of those. He's going to help me out with the wiring. Me and electrical work are a bad mix. .

Lucy is done. I went and paid the bill today. Ugh.
I still need to bring her home. I will grab my brother tomorrow and go get her by lunch. -
You poor guy! What a mess. And I thought my last two weeks were miserable! Car shopping! I hate car shopping with a passion!

There are two specific things you can do that will effectively protect your car & are hard to bypass without specific knowledge. I have run both of these together on many of my cars.
The first one uses a momentary switch & a 12v relay. You take the neutral safety switch wires into one side of the 12v relay & the momentary switch on the other side. The momentary goes under the dash on the left side. When you start the car you hold in the momentary while you turn the key to start the car. Without pushing in the momentary switch the car won’t start.
Additionally I take the glove box container out & modify it. I use .025 thick aluminum & make a box that attaches to the container. So basically a hidden compartment that is accessible through the glove box. I make a Velcro attached aluminum door that closes off the hidden compartment. I cover the entire inside with black felt & spray on contact glue. This makes the access door nearly invisible.
In this hidden compartment is a push button switch, basically on/off. You run the ground wire of the coil in one side & out the other. If the switch is in the off position the car will not start.
Most security systems are not worth the money! People are accustomed to hearing them no one really pays attention. Most that use process to stop the car from starting are more trouble than they’re worth. At the end of the day if a thief wants your car specifically, they’ll get it. If they’re just looking to steal a car & you make it difficult, they’ll pass.
My two cents. -
Last time I was at his house, it was Lk Orion. Close to Golling.
-
If you ride with us, we will make a stop or two for goodies.

Joe bailed on Saturday because of the threat of rain, since he sells a lot of clocks these days. We should check Facebook to see where he is going to be on Woodward. You know Joe lives in Ortonville don’t you?
-
I'm looking for suggestions on a kill switch to increase security for my Lemans. Also if anyone has recommendations for alarm systems that they have used, I'd really appreciate it.
