Fun though it would be to take on the turnpike, how long would the tracks last at that kind of speed? Lottery tickets, gotta get some lottery tickets! :wink:

What makes you think that I'd travel at excessive speed? I'll use the flashers...perfectly legal. :)

The only flashers I'd use are the four .50 Cal round ones on the top.

Especially If I was traveling from Newark to Camden via Trenton.

How cool would it be to have that!

I was talking to a man an airshow at Barksdale a few years ago (if I remember correctly) who owned a halftrack with a quad mount. He said that he found the truck for sale at some run down auto place who was selling it for dirt cheap. As he left with the vehicle they stopped him and said,"OH YEAH!! we forgot...there is some other parts to the truck under a tarp in the back that go with the truck!" Low and behold, it was the quad mount!! The guys selling the truck really had no idea what they had! :shock: They restored it back into a great condition!
