Default Anyone know the story?

A pretty interesting tow rig, first I've seen it. May be an old picture but kinda interesting

I'm guessing that when the weather is too bad to drive the Cobra, you tow it around town, stopping at gas stations so folks can ask, "Is it real?" I can't think of any other reason to have a trailer like that.

I like one thing about it, and dislike one thing about it, I like that I can see the car, I dislike that I can see the car...

I forget which company I looked at that made these, but it was like a $30,000 option. I didn't need one that bad.

I think for $30K, I'd like to get a prettier board to prop the door open...
Neat trailer, though.

Dang that is good looking.

Imagine showing up at London with your car in that.

I don't have that kind of coin.

Definitely different and not affordable for most. But I'd be willing to bet that most that dislike it probably don't even HAVE a trailer to use. I'd rather have that than nothing at all (and I have nothing).

I would rather have a Pinto than no car...

Well, it's mine. And it's not a $30,000 trailer, or anywhere near it. It's light (2,400 lbs.), tows great and has a higher GVW than trailers with 3500 lb. axles. It's from the Netherlands and the guy from whom I bought it says it's the only one in the US. It's true the good thing is you can see the car...the bad thing is you can see the car. It's easy to load and keeps the car a lot drier than my open trailer. I like it.
