Re: Gheenoe Highsider Rebuild
Thanks guys!
John, The Gheenoe font is Magneto. I had the reg #'s made at a local sign shop to match.
Brian, I am going to text the guy a pic when its all done
I could use some leads on a small trailer if anyone knows of any. I was thinking about extending the tongue on a jet ski trailer, but I'm having trouble finding anything decent without paying $800+ for a new one.

Re: Gheenoe Highsider Rebuild
Looks amazing!
As far as the trailer goes, I would encourage you to consider throwing down for a new one. I bought a used on off CL for $250 and then wound up spending about $400 on tires and bunks and springs and hardware. And at the end of the day it is a beat up old galvenized trailer with a bit of new hardware. For $200 more I could have gone brand new. Wish I would have.
That said, want to buy my trailer for around $650?

Re: Gheenoe Highsider Rebuild
You do some really good work Gary! That's one sharp Gheenoe! Is the rear hatch a compartment separated from where the gas can is located? or is it just an access to the back part of that same that area?
Re: Gheenoe Highsider Rebuild
Thanks, yes the compartments are separate. There is a small hole for the fuel line to pass through.eagle24 wrote:You do some really good work Gary! That's one sharp Gheenoe!

Stick a fork in her she's done and in her new home with her new owner in GA ....
Ready to roll out...
First run by the new owner His first time running a tiller and a boat this small as well....It was interesting to say the least
Giving the old man a ride
It was a fantastic day.
