Default Race car trailer rental

Where in the MA/Boston area can I rent a closed trailer to haul a car? Here in the north east, I guess this isent as popular as in the south.

Can't help you with a place to rent. However, as someone who has rented trailers in the past to haul a car, be sure to inspect the trailer tires for bulges when you pick it up, as well as anything else on the tires that looks strange. Most rental places will provide you with one spare tire. Ask for a second one, and pay for it if they won't give it to you for free.

It's no fun to be in the first 50 miles of a 1000 mile round trip, have a blowout, then be left without a spare tire...on a Sunday night when all the tire shops are closed. Ask me how I know this...

I wasn't joking. He's in jail on 20k cash bond for stealing and chopping numerous cars, including that of fellow rennlister rolexnj's 3.0 951. He also stole a Ferrari mentioned here on RL some months ago. See the post at the top of the 951 board for the whole story.

ehall,

Just read the thread. Amazing - arrested for car theft and running a chop shop at the time he was trying to rent the trailer.

LAWRENCE (AP) -- State police say they have seized a Porsche and thousands of dollars in car parts at the home of a man charged with running a chop shop in New Hampshire.

The discovery yesterday came two days after 27-year-old Morgan Kipper of Billerica was arrested in New Hampshire. He is being held on charges he stole a Ferrari and several Subarus.

Massachusetts state troopers and Billerica police searched Kipper's home yesterday. They say they found a $60,000 Porsche that had been stolen in New Jersey and about $35,000 worth of car parts that the suspect may have planned to sell on the black market.

In addition to the New Hampshire charges, Kipper now faces multiple counts of possession of stolen vehicles and possession of burglary tools.

Unbelievable.... For me ALL the POS's who steal cars should have a life sentence imposed on them. The act of stealing is a very deliberate act and there should be ZERO tolerance for these kind of crimes.

Feeding them for life is way too much "tolerance" for me!

That was back in the day. We should rehabilitate the misguided youth. Probably came from an abused disfunctional family.

We should invite him to a DE.................chained to the back of a car. If after 8 heat cycles he has learned his lesson, let him go.
