Awesome trailer, I'd definitely be interested if it were closer to California.

Hello Rennlist,

A couple of questions came up about this trailer:
  1. The 'V' in the VIN indicates that it is model year 1997, but the title says 1998, So let's call it a 1997-1998.
  2. There are two eye-hooks visible in the lower corners of the rear door. I installed those to secure a couple of fuel jugs behind the car. They are just bolted in and are easily removed if needed for a wider car.
And thanks @Rboosted717. Practically every event where I go around the Northeast, someone comes over to check-out/admire this trailer, mostly because it looks "too small" from the outside to carry the car and everything else. It has served me well since '02, transporting my '94 RSA, and my '98 993 Cup 3.8 (It is ideal for these, but at 80.25 clear inside width, can work with wider cars, too).
