OK. I withdrawl my offer for a partnership on a computer fishin pole. I'll just save up til I can buy the whole thing. When you see me on the lake snoozin between hookups and ask me my secret I'm not sayin a thing. Just goin back to sleep with my computer rod and trollin motor both on auto pilot.
And I'll be ready for the bites. I'm at the shop goin through the ol' Sea Nymph. Thinkin about puttin a hitch on the Delta. If I could make the Delta float I think I could be a hit in Nashville trollin at Piercy Priest. That rig would stretch out to forty one feet on the road, maybe forty five doin eighty on 65 South.

No. We never got the attorney which is good because they always go after the boat first.

My better half is wondering if that 88 is a 1975? Hard to tell by the pic. 350 or 455? Thanks.OK. I withdrawl my offer for a partnership on a computer fishin pole.

Yeah. 1975 350 rocket engine with all the air polution contraptions they could thimk of in the day. Slower than molasis.
After making that last post it dawned on me that I should change my name for the car from " the blue convertible" to " the "Delta Queen".
Hope I havent hiacked this thread.

Pete, that would be a classic looking rig. I plead guilty off topic, but check these out. (Dad's old rigs)
Man. A Caddy at that! Pretty close parallel when look at size and color of boat and car.Pete, that would be a classic looking rig. I plead guilty off topic, but check these out. (Dad's old rigs)
With a Cadillac pulling an aluminum boat that would make for some real smooth road trips and camping facilities.
In college a friend bought an old green Caddy. A big one. We took it from Lexington to New Orleans. I had the whole back seat to my self and never got out until we slid into New Orleans.
I pulled with a Buick LeSabre from 95 to 2004. That was a modern day car with struts and everything. It really took the curves well on the two lane.
Guilty again. Maybe I can move these posts and start a new thread. "Odd towing Vehicles"
I think we have a winner Picture this. Dad used to tow that aluminum boat with a 440 1967 Chrysler New Yorker. On a fishing trip to the bay back in the early 70's, and while towing the 19 foot Lone Star, the ole man got irratated by a kid in a 289 Mustang sitting beside us at a stop light in Baltimore. When the light changed, he dumped the gas pedal, the Chrysler 440 lit up both tires and he beat the Mustang to the next traffic light. The kid in the Mustang would not look at us at the next light.
Now that is a small tow vehicle. Did you have to put the propeller on the pontoon to make it go?I think we have a winner Picture this.

Peter that is a perfect color match.
I bought a 1976 + or - caddy hearse for 500 at a charity auction I planned on putting a hitch on it and making an old wood casket for my fishing rods and back my ranger in the water at Kentucky dam boat ramp during a tournament open the back doors roll the casket out and get my rods out etc. but there was to much wrong with the hearse to fix it up plus the huge engine would probably only get about 4 mpg pulling a boat. But it would be the talk of the boat launch and turn some heads going down the highway.
