        That looks sweet. Be sure to put some sort of chock to bump against for those front tires. Wouldn't want a run-away winch to drag the car into the nose of that trailer.
        You wana look waaay far up da road and plan yer route because the brakes are far more of a suggestion than a command!

          There will be large rubber stops for the front, I only marked the placement of the racks so far lots of final prep to do but it is coming together and works just as I had hoped it would. When I get finished I will load the car and post pis of how it is tied down and secured anyway I am very happy with the results perfect size for my a and t's.

          I hadn't notice that until I posted it later two other people pulled in the drive to take a look, one guy even stayed to see how the winch pulled the car into the trailer. Next project finally get it inspected so I can tag it that has been a six week ordeal with the kansas vehicle enforcement. Then put in the insulation in the ceiling put in the ceiling and sides bolt load racks down and put load lights in.

        Very nice. I like the low loading height of the floor.

          Tom, you need a trailer like Chief's. It would give you extra garage space for working. Just a thought, Pat

          Get a nice one Mitch and a w-900 kw with a double walk in sleeper I am sure it would cost less than getting three daughters married. Maybe a disbanded nascar team deal. My wife put in an order for me to remodel the house I had your request on top of the stack but she rearranged the stack, guess where you are?

        Torsion axles Tom plus they ride better than a sprung trailer. Think about it we shock absorber on cars to control the spring rebound but not a trailer.
