I'm working on transport for a '71 1310 travelette 4x4 dually... I imagine
the GVWR on that is a bit above that aforementioned 8200#.   I'll see if I
can get an exact figure on it.

IIRC Crismon's may show a 1510 4x4 travelette in it?   Might be mistaken
there I guess...  I know they made 1310 travelettes though!   Just need to
get it moved, only people I know who have a trailer and truck big enough to
move something this size (lwb travelette dually with a massive front bumper)
can't do it right now, been working on it for a while (I think I mentioned
it on here before).

BTW, I havn't yet received the original post in this thread either...

Thanks,
Ryan
