    Type65 - Enclosed Car Trailer

    All

    Starting to look into an enclosed car trailer for my type65. Does anyone have experience with what sized enclosed trailer works well with these cars ? I'm looking for the shortest trailer that works well. Don't really need room up front for workspace etc, just need enough room to get in and out.

    Any help/advice would be greatly appreciated. Also, if anyone has a trailer in the San Diego area, let me know!

    Serpent express, 18 footer. 16 will probably work but may be tight.

    Check with EdwardB (Paul). He had a writeup about his trailer in his build thread.

    20 foot is optimal for the Coupe, not too big, not too small, if going enclosed opt for the drivers side door to make it easier to get in and out of the car itself when in the trailer.
