I'd like to as well. The parts car is white so I likely will be yellow with a green pass side fender & a white drivers side fender & white trunk. Unless I can get the trunk adjusted better
I just bought this

Nice package deal! Make a sweet state police car clone. I think I may even have ridden in the back of one at some point of my life

Keeping both trailers?

Yes. I need a second one. This one has a steel bed & nice winch. Perfect for non running junk cars. The other has a wood bed & is lighter. Perfect for nicer cars that can drive on. And the race car

even i have two car hauling trailers , one light weight for the racers , not wide enough for c bodies or full size p/u . but will be my salt flats trailer . the other is a all steel hd one that can handle the wider ones or wrecks , got my d200 crewcab on that now . and we bumped it wider at the tail for duel rear one tons . looks like sh...t , but it will handle 5 tons easily .

what ? the running one is the puller , right . crew don't rock n roll yet , 440/727 still needs to be installed . 318 in it is stuck . but the rb is a runner , with the 3.54 dana 60 i got from a 70 d200 at brian's yard . and 4.10 dana will get cut down for a racer . but that d100 would surprise you , it tows pretty good , i beef up the rear springs with some maxi van leafs when i put the 9 1/4 3.54 locker in it , came out of a 440/auto ramcharger i had , thing just dug holes .

You are right but I put all 61 - 71 under the same label. Love those trucks.
Personally... I'm a fan of the tongue jack... not much to break there.

been using a floor jack , and when its not loaded . it sits up off the ground about a foot , so i've just been arm strong'ng on the receiver hitch ball . that reminds me of a time when some young girl driver was texting or something took her eyes from the trailer , lucky it wasn't loaded . she crashed at street speed , no brakes at all . her right front married my trailer , broke the receiver hitch and than ball in the tongue slammed into my stock orange matching rear bumper in to a ''u'' . it stop the trailer there , and kept it from my tail gate as least . i was walking right next to my p/u hitched to the trailer on the sidewalk , just as i heard the sound of her slamming into the trailer , i flipped around to see my p/u pass me and end up on the sidewalk park strip . noise of the truck on the sidewalk . i walked up to her car to check on her . she was texting her boyfriend , her car was still running wrecked into the left rear of my trailer . she was fine . but it junked that rice burner , took two tow rigs to pull my trailer n her car apart . at least her father paid for what he felt was a far repair bill . but won't pay for down time for the repairs . he told me he was going to buy her a bus pass . he going to save a boat load of funds on insurance premiums with a driver like her .
