Default Car transporter

I've always been intrigued by this car transporter. Does anyone have any info about them. I guess I could contact Hunter.

A ratchet strap across my door latches would give me pause. Or perhaps you mean to buy your own as opposed to use their services.

Use to know a guy who had one with a shorter flatbed than the picture you posted, and he called it a LoveIt. Guess you Love it or Hate it. Too bad he passed away a few years back or I'd get the scoop for you. Flatbad van conversion. Maybe check with the camper conversion van industry to see about flatbed versions. All I know is a new conversion camper van starts around $85k plus. Only challenge it making sure you can get the low hung Cobra with side pipes on and off the rig without damage or having a stress heart-attack, seems pretty high in the air. :-)

Good luck and keep the thread updated, it's a great way to transport your Cobra for the world to see without worrying about it getting blasted by road dirt and grime off the rear dually's. Nice.

Thanks guys. Looks like a nice concept if the right ramps would work with a Cobra.

A diesel would be ideal.

Just thinking.

Looks like an expensive vehicle to be singularly used to transport Cobra. Not a lot of demand causes large deprciation factor. Used (Diesel) Truck and nice trailer would make more sense and be able to be used more. And be worth more and easier to sell when your done. Sorry for the rant???

How about a Featherlight 22' x 8.8 stacker trailer. Will hold 2 cobras and all the suff that goes with a week outing. $35,000.00 Original owner paid $85,000.00 plus tax and lic. Has 12 volt and 110 lights. Air compressor, 100 gal water tank, 100 gal fuel station with hose and nozzle, outside lights, full length push button awning, have cord to plug into shore power or generator. Cord can be plugged into motor home gen also. Will give drop hitch with trailer, 20,000 lb capacity. Will hold large sand car and 4 quads easily if your into that. Can't pull with pickup in my opinion, need motor home or truck. Looks like I'm going to lose class A lic. If this is wrong place for this delete or move.

Don't post pictures to well. Pictures taken by previous owner still up on race-car site. Tag Trailer Listings then scroll down to 2004 Featherlite 4920 sold to see pictures. Still looks the same since I bought it.
