Bad Bowtie is driving a Toyota, you must have a classic or built Chevy.


I've put quite a few nice 73-87 pickups together over the years. The wife recently sold her '81 4x4 350/sm465/205 with 9"s of lift and 38.5 TSL's. Leaving us with just the 3 Toyota's. I've went by Bad Bowtie on several forums since the 90's, just kinda stuck with it

Acually I have been impressed, its not a drag car but havent felt like i could not merge into traffic.my car hauler has a steel deck and with the P1k i really couldnt notice the difference. I did add a trailer brake controller for a little more braking control. Yes v10 with 6 speed trans. I' sure it' not going to get great MPG. but we can travel with my P1k now.

Man Would that be a treat to back up.
Acually it havent been to bad. So far I have had plenty of room the couple times I have had to back up. My trailer is just wide enough that I can see the fenders while driving and backing.
Backup camera helps A BUNCH!

I made a flat bed on my 99 Ford F250 light duty. It has 7 lug axles and is rated at about 3,000 pounds payload. I think Ford still has the option on the new pickups too. The extension allows my Yamaha YXZ with a 90 inch wheelbase to fit too. I'm hoping the Honda sport models will fit. I made it low with wheel wells for a better loading ramp angle.

He just pulled out from the nose so he could level it. I do the same thing all the time. Then I can stand on top of the bed and put the satellite dish up on the top of the nose so I can watch tv at night. :)
