Thiokol 1202B

Remember our last trip? And you thought I was asleep the whole 17 hours!



Nah I wish you were riding shotgun too! Then we could tell each other lies all over again!

I don't know about you two guys. Seems to me that there were several girls in my high school who got pregnant under similar circumstances. But being a tolerant adult, all I can say is you two do what you need to do, I won't ask, please don't tell :poke:

I Agree with Bill we have pulled some very heavy loads in the summer and winter with our F350 one load weighed in at 29,000 pounds from New York to Minnesota four machines at once only two flat tires and seemed to miss alot of scales.

The dual wheel F350 truck with a larger trailer will also get more attention from the law enforcement as they may consider you running illegally for hire without the DOT info and not stopping at the ports of entry as is required on over 10,000 GVW. You see a lot of hot shot truckers on the highways running the bigger trailers with the dual wheel trucks hauling smaller equipment. I have used them to transport snow cats. The less attention the better....:idea:
 
Mikey has picked up his new 1202B and is on his way home! :thumb: After several minutes of being confounded by the lack of a steering wheel, he was able to start it on the first try and it purred like a kitten right up onto the trailer. With two Thiokols now, he seems to be slowly distancing himself from the Snow-Trac crowd. The 1202B is still not a Kristi, but he hasn't ruled out having his wife change the spelling of her name.
:yum:

OK before I take off for Vegas I thought I would post these. When I get back I will have my work cut out cleaning her out. Inside is pretty dirty.

Serial number 1163 (ANYONE KNOW THE YEAR?)

She is VERY LOW geared as well. I would say she has the lowest gears available. Its a true WORK horse or cat!:thumb:

I also found some reciepts in her plus a thank you letter from the dealer it was bought from. There was an oil analysis do in 1993 and she had 1584 miles on her. Then there is a recent reciept to change all the fluids ect ect. The belting is in GREAT shape and looks almost new. I suspect it may even be the original. No cracks or tears just dirty. The grousers have seen better days though. They are just beat up but in good working form. The drivers seat is new. The lights work. Needs a windshield wiper blade. and a good cleaning! OK gotta go!

The plywood is crap and will get replaced asap. I filled the tires up since they were low. I want to go and get new rims for it. I like the magnesium??? rims. Not sure if they are magnesium but they look cool!

I will also replace the wood for the rails as well.

Alright, now get back out there with a flash or worklight and get an interior shot! :weneedpic
 
What make is that white cat in the background of the last pic? Looks like you've got a nice selection of machines to choose from.
 
That white elephant is his amphibious Thiokol. Only his Thiokols (will ever) work. The Snot-Master is still in the circus tent.
 
HEY at least its "MY" circus! The white "THIOKOL" (elephant my ass) is an amphibious snowcat. Cant wait to take it onto the lake to go fishing!
 
Interior pics. Not for the timid.
