Spare Time Restore
This is our 1972 Garwood dump trailer. 22' long 22 to 24 cy capacity. Behind it you see a 1961 Rogers 40 ton fixed neck lowbed we are working on.

Real nice rehab on the trailer, looks too good to use.
Nice looking country side in the background also.
What exactly is "spare time", I have looked around and can't seem to find any of that here. Is it a Connecticut thing? Maybe you could send me some?

In Connecticut we excell in efficient job performance and sometimes exceed the alotted goal for the day.
It is in these times of performance excellence that we find time previously allotted has accumulated through this perfection in execution of daily tasks continuously that can now be used wisely for additional tasks of importance.

Ohh, I see.
I'll never get any "spare time" I'm way too inefficient.
Maybe I take too many smoke breaks during the day.....No wait, that can't be it, I don't smoke....Must be something else.

All that work and it's just going to get dirty again, looks great though. Are you pulling it with a vintage truck? There a contractor out this way that has several older 70's trucks, one a cab-over bucket truck, painted up real nice, they're pretty cool and unique, definitely attention getters.
