different sort of trailer
Guys,
Thanks for the input, my friend feels more justified to have bought the new trailer. Aside from avoiding the potential trans damage, no more renting U-Haul "ton-O-fun" 2-axle trailers (flat tires) or "dollies".
I get to borrow the trailer in the pictures. Another friend of mine designed and built it for a Can-Am car he used to run (Lola T-70). It is so low you can drive a Can-Am or F-1 car right on. Doesn't quite get all the way to the ground so a length of 2X10 with a bevel on one end helps for a smooth drive on. A winch would be great, but not really necessary.
The hydraulic pump & 12v battery are in the storage box up front.
I'll put in a plug for the trailer builder...if you like the cast wheels on the Cobra and the trailer, try Phil of PS Engineering. He won't make you a trailer but he makes great vintage wheels. Cast, two-piece, pin-drive, bolt on, any size or off-set. Cobra type, kidney bean, whatever you need for a project.

Apologies if the photo files are too large...
Pete
