The Otis trailer first appeared in the Colorado paint thread. http://www.bmw2002faq.com/component/option,com_forum/Itemid,57/page,viewtopic/t,368721/highlight,otis+trailer/
Yesterday, the Otis Trailer returned from the paint shop; sorry for the iPhone quality pictures and odd lighting, which makes the paint look strange in these pictures. But we think we finally nailed the paint color. So last night, we hooked up the stereo. The lone remaining chores: (1) Install the top and gas shocks, (2) install the spare tire, (3) polish the wheels, (4) cover the six-pack doors (the wooden things in the pictures) in black leather, (5) test drive for proper tracking, and (6) tag and title. Whereupon, fun tailgating times await ... JohnInVA: no more grey trailer, therefore no more coffin jokes!
I plan to take the Otis Trailer to the Great Falls, VA, Cars and Coffee - when it's finished, that is - for the maiden voyage. Because that occurs on Saturday Mornings, we probably will show cartoons, or Stooges reruns, on the video monitors. More adult video content, we will reserve for Otisland events.
