There are a few body tubs out here in the Manitoba surplus scrapyard. Some have accident damage, others the usual dents and cracking. Bit of a long drive from Southern Ontario mind you.

Default Road trip

Well, not really for a brave soul in a snowmobile suit driving a running M38A1 chassis with a gas tank and a lawn chair, some 48hr trip permits, and a back pack full of tools. Except for the absence of a beer holder, this is almost everything needed for a road trip! On the bright side, think of the high mileage rates you'd get with no slipstream and negligible wind resistence.

On the other hand, there are internet photos of just about everything lashed to the roof of third-world passenger cars. Why not an M38A1 body (I hate the word 'tub') cargo strapped to the roof of Eric's family sedan?
