I ordered a Jimglow 2015 trailer last week as a present to myself. I will be retiring from my job as a hostage negotiator for Houston PD. After a little over 39 years it is time to enjoy whatever good years I have left here on the planet. I had a great career and will miss being where all the action is with all the great people I served with.
I needed the trailer to transport my car to my hometown in north Texas where my 90 year old father lives. He loves going to car shows and I wanted to be able to include him close to his home.
Now for a little bad news depending on how loyal you are to Ford. I have always liked the early Camaro's as my very first car was a 67 RS Camaro with a 327 2V. I was given this car by my parents after my Mother got it new then my sister got it then I finally got the keys. I ended up trading it for my first new car, a gold glow 72 Mach 1.
My wife saw a black with white stripe 69 SS RS Camaro at a car show last year. She brought it up a couple weeks ago and asked me what kind of car it was. At the time she asked she didn't know what kind of car it was. She said it was a car that she thought would fit her and wanted me to start looking for the right car for her in the next couple of years as she is getting ready to retire too. By the way, we have been together all this time (41 years) which is pretty rare for a police officer.
I moved to Houston in 1975 with my wife to go to the police academy. I put a trailer hitch on our 72 Mach 1 and rented a U-Haul trailer to bring what little we owned to Houston. So, I arrived to work my first day in that Mustang. I plan to drive my last day, January 16, 2015, in my 1971 429CJ Mustang Mach 1.
I don't think it could be any better than this for me! Here is a picture of a similar trailer. They are all custom made.
