"Trailer", "hauler", "trailor".... - Zilvia.net Forums | Nissan 240SX (Silvia) and Z (Fairlady) Car Forum

So for the last couple of months I've been in serious search for a decent car hauler so that I can rest assured I will get the 240 home after the events. If you browse C-list regularly you figure out that its often necessary to imagine how one might fu*k up their own advert; hense the search query "trailor" (there are 67 "trailors" for sale in the greater ATL area...)

Anyways, the point here is that I was curious about others transport methods. I've really been looking into "late model" and dirt track open car haulers. Its sort of a difficult one to search but these guys often put together the ideal open rig for usually under 2000 bucks. Anybody using something cool like this? Post a picture, tell me what you're pulling with and some info about your trailer

I missed this beast, it sold for $1500!!!

Paid 500.00 for the trailer. Then bought new hubs, brakes, emergency brake box, led lights all around, rewired it, new saftey chains, tounge hitch, and D-rings. I didnt feel it was wide enough, so I increased the width by 6". Bought new wood planks and stained them, fresh paint, new wheels and tires. Into it about 1500.00 But it is basically a brand new trailer.

^ Nice! I'm not apposed to overhauling the trailer I find, if enough of what I want is there, but I'm trying to avoid it. Another good thing about the trailers built for dirt track/late model, is they usually have them set really wide. Have any idea what the trailer alone weights?

I have no clue, never had it to the scale, It is really light though.

^ It looks like it would be. I'll be pulling my car with my 4.0L Cherokee, once I re-gear it, so I have to steer away from the "heavy duty" rigs.
