Absolutely Beautiful !!!!!!!!!

I need to get me one, can't wait to see it with the Belle Glade wheels on it-------Really Bug some nice aluminum bullet hole rims would look great---- Strongback has worked hard to put a lot of class in his trailers--- don't put dat shet on there--LMAO

When I get one I am gonna take the CHROME wheels out from under my House LMMFAO !!!!!!!!

LMAO Now that some funny shiz! ''That's Right'' Im glad you said it first and I didn't have to. I told Mike Id take care of the custom trailer stuff and the only two things I ask are FIRST Let me take that tetanus ridden trailer he has now and drag it to a specialist, that boat and that trailer are not meant to be and Im pretty sure by now the STV might have caught a STD from that biotch! The next thing Mike has to do for me is to leave everything on the trailer the way it is for at least 30 days until he starts sprinkling glitter on it :D...When he sees it the first time Im sure/scratch that I'm positive he will leave it alone. Top secret trailer builder is using top secret resources to make sure the King of Bling is aaaaaaaa Blingin!! Mike seriously thanks for making all this possible! Yall have a good night and see you all in 9 days at the ranch!

Ok I got if figured out ''That's Right''... After a lot of thought and a couple cups of coffee I went ahead and welded the Wheels onto the hub. That should buy me some time! LMFAO!! No lug nuts needed!

Relaxin for sure.... Mission accomplished fella's. Mike Monday morning is fine with me. I gotta open up shop and get the guys heading in the right direction for the day. After that Ill start heading east! Maybe we can save you some miles. So thinking about miles, you have to come half way to me and then back to your house then back to Lake Jackson and then to River Ranch and then back home.....LMAO I love this boating thing!!!! Mr Foley, I look forward to shaking your hand and say thanks to you! I gotta say this too...... The pics don't do the trailer justice. Mike you are going to sh!t when you load that boat on her the first time...... :D

Its been an experience building both these DBR 15'' 300xs motas for sure! Kcraft thanks for the compliment on the sexy welding helmet! Im like the STIG of boat trailers.... Nobody really knows who I am...LMFAO!!!!!! Trailer STIG out.....:icon_bs:

Hey Quint, don't let your Dad see that! I have been hiding that one from him! Its becoming harder and harder to tell him that the Euro is a customers boat after all this time. I saw him next to the 260 with a can of white Krylon the other day. I said whacha doin? He said, tuning this POS up!!! I think he is on to me. As soon as he figures out its my BLACK mota he is going to spray that thing down!!!!
