    Here's a success story from the Meltdown's swap meet. Brother Larry sold his 59 Impala. The new owners picked it up, today, and it's on it's way to New Glarus Wis. They first spotted it in the swap meet at The Meltdown.

    Not sure you would need trailer brakes with that truck in trailer mode.
    That six speed auto was pretty slick.
    You could road race with that thing in the right car. ;)
