    Cool pic ATM, thanks for sharing.
    I remember at Tunica cut off an ole man offering to give someone a tow at daylite, 10 or 12 foot jon boat and just a paddle. The ole man to do the towing had a 7 1/2 horse Sears on a jon boat. He pulled em out that morning and had offered to pull em back in when they were ready.
    folks in too big a hurry now a days, times were simple then, werent much sport to it tho, we was fishing for grub!!

    Good picture right there. Back in the 70's I drove redneck chopped VW's and pulled my 16' narrow jon boat behind them. The 6 hp motor rode laying over in the boat on top of a rubber tire. Thanks for the memories.

    In 1972, I pulled a Model J Ouchatau behind a Pinto station wagon. Lots of good memories.

    That vw beetle was a tough car. I had a 68 and a 71.I used to take my 14 footer with trailer down in a bottom and trotline a slough off the Mississippi River. Always had a couple folks with me so if I got stuck we just picked it up and moved it over! That picture brings back great memories!
