I just picked up an old argo. The owner said its like a '70 or '72, he doesn't know. How can I find out? Its in pretty rough shape, the tub is shot, lots of large cracks. It has the old one piece rim/tire things, all but one are ****. So my questions are,
1: Can the tub be repaired, will fiberglass or epoxy stick to the plastic? I have a buddy who works at a bathtub factory, I'm thinking maybe I could bring him my tub and he could spray the whole thing with fiberglass and either just strengthen it, or maybe use it as a mold to make a new one. Any thoughts on this?
2: what is the cheapest way to get working wheels on it? I'm thinking I can make an adapter to a four wheeler wheel and just get some cheap wheels and tires from harbor freight or surplus center.
3: To take it all apart, do I just remove the wheels, remove the axles, then can you lift the whole carriage with the motor and everything out of the tub?
I don't know what model it is or anything, I just think its like early 70's, is there a manual available for this type of argo?
Thanks alot. -Sam
