Tom,
Cargo trailers are built differently than a car trailer, differently how starts in the main frame, as a enclosed trailer built for cars will have more framing members and braces than an enclosed trailer built for cargo. Additionally, in quite a few cases, a cargo trailer will have a flat floor, where a car trailer will have a slight dovetail towards the rear opening. Configuration of the walls and ceiling are the same for both in most cases. A trip to the Haulmark and Featherlite manufacturing facilities back in the early 2K's and a tour of both taught me those tidbits. I'm certain there were more, but that are the ones I can remember.
