TOPIC: To be picked up Gator trailer w/ AWESOME fenders

I just bought a 1964 boat on a Gator trailer. Is it a Super Gator w/ those fenders?

Limited pix can be deciving, but the fiberglass & metal trim on the fenders looks to be in amazing shape

The seller doesn't know a whole lot, but at 5.5hrs away I want to go prepared to replace the bearings & tires/rims.

Looks like 4lug 5.3X12 rims/tires. Seller may or may not get back to me soon w/ actual sizes, but I have a few sets of rims/tires I can take to get it home..........


Any help would be great.... Thanks


No, you don't want to know how much:





It will end up under either my 1960 FireFlite which has languished un-touched for a good LONG while or my 1957 Duracraft Custom Deluxe:


Have a great end to the week!

Well, finally got a tire/rim size from the seller:

6.9 X 9 5lug??? wth?

Going to be tough to find a couple a spares here in north central WV....

Any help fellas?

Take the car hauler with you and your good to go.

Good idea PR, but not possible w/ my current tow rig. Combined that'd be too close for my comfort, esp given the terrain between here & there. Good number of substantial hill climbs each way.

I've got a few lines on alternatives. Thanks agaon

Well, LONG day yesterday, but the #517 Super Gator is home....

I'll post some pix of the trailer & etc as soon as I get the Chrysler 75 off the back & the boat off the trailer. For now here's pix & info from the library:




It also has the auto-launch added winch post.

Have a good weekend all

Here it is in it's rougher then expected condition:

I'm not overly concerned about the damage to the fiberglass fenders, and have a line on replacement grilles. So the rest is metal to be worked.

Getting the 1964 boat off it was a PITA, but the deed is done.
