Wow , 31K + tax for a bare bones trailer … it doesn’t even have cabinets or a winch yet !
If you’re not in a hurry , wait and the right used trailer will eventually come along. I wasn’t particularly looking when i bought mine
as i had a nicely optioned Trailex open one , but when i came upon my Proline i had to jump on it as it had everything i needed in a trailer .

Cheers
Phil

If you know of any steel units that are of that same design to what I posted, please let me know where to look or post a link please!

I have seen one Alum in ON, it was all black and was about $25k. Keep in mind, I am in the prairies... Although, I have seen 0 steel car haulers like Ive posted here. There is lots of steel units, but not of this particular design.

ive purchased all my work trailets from these guys over the years. - 5 so far.. I havnt found many other suppliers beat their prices.
have a look on their site, also you can give them a call and tell them what your looking for. They often have unlisted units on hand.

Might go look at this one:

Has everything I need except a nice price... I emailed them to see what they can do on pricing.

fot.ca/view-detail-page/133904/Stealth-by-Alcom-24ft-Car-Hauler-W-9-990-lbs-GVWR/

Interior is mostly done, a few lights and has those nice extendable aluminum ramps. I should be able to drive right in easily.

Looks nice and shiny , but looking at the height of the inner wheel wells not sure if you’ll be able to open the doors in the trailer on a lowered race car .Something like Adamant posted would be a good option.Keep in mind you’ll need to add a winch and with a “V” nose you have some lost space and it makes it impossible to add a workbench and cabinets !

Just sayin …

Cheers

The fender comes off via a couple of clips and allows you to open the door.

Ill probably build some custom stuff up front if I do go this route, but not sure.

I think the slightly V will help split the air.

Not much options for this stuff locally.

if you have a bit of time, you can custom order a Stealth through these guys at FOT. Plus they seem to bargain more. I just ordered a custom build and ended up about $6500 off the msrp. I dealt with Dave Gosse there. They say 6-8 weeks to get a custom one to one of their several lots.

I am dealing with him on a couple of units they have, we have been emailing back and forth. I have a trip planned to the west coast for the end of March so will need one for then.

He doesn't want to budge on his listed price at all so far.

Yes, they seem fairly firm on in-stock units. I was happily surprised about the price flexibility for custom order though. I was basically counter-offering their quotes to me on an exact custom build.
