I'm interested in buying a decent car trailer/hauler. Not a pressing need, but looking. Must be dual axle, have working brakes and lights. Don't care if it needs cosmetics, but should be in good working order.

Thanks!

My buddy is talking about selling this AIRCRAFT CARRIER and buying an enclosed trailer for his racecar. I borrow this often and would hate to see it go, personally.

It's 18ft long, 6-1/2ft wide, with a fender width of 102". If the tires are pumped up, the doors on a Z car will *JUST* open above the fenders. Zcars which have been lowered or which have flat tires are hopelessly trapped by the fenders. Getting into/out of such carz has proven challenging.

The darned thing weighs a ton empty, but is rated at nearly 5,000lbs total weight, leaving it a carry capacity of another 3,000lbs. Excellent diamond plate deck with many tie-down anchor points around the perimeter.

The tires and brakes are excellent, and all lights are weatherproof LEDs. Everything works. No winch. It's very new, garage kept and well maintained. Few miles so far, but I keep trying to fix that. No horn, no windshield wipers, no heater, defroster or radio!

Please don't buy this beautiful trailer ~ I need it often.

Frank

Not getting the Zs doors open while on the trailer would be a BIG problem! Seems very heavy as well, don't want to be locked into a weight limit.

You can keep using it Frank! :wink:

I climb thru the window or go thru the hatch when I have a car on the trailer. It is a pain but not much you can do about it.

That sure beats the U-haul I used. If you don't want it, I would like to follow through on this. By the way Frank, my new bumper is coming along great, much better. I think Tiny Tim can handle this. For now, I'll await the decision.
