I am in the market for an enclosed race trailer that will fit a teener or a 911 and some gear. Please keep you antennae and feelers extended on my behalf and let me know.

Unless you have a place to park the trailer....damn thing isn't so cheap to pay to have it stored....

easy way for both the car AND your new trailer to disappear.

Speaking of which, since I already bought a 20' enclosed car trailer on e-bay, what precautions would you recommend to prevent theft of the trailer? Some sort of hitch lock or wheel lock (denver boot)?

Local PCA AXer got his trailer stolen one night with his 914 in it. Next day the car showed up in the parking lot of a mall surrounded by tires. Trailer was never seen again. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/ar15.gif)
BTW, why do we have two "I agree" smilies? |

I have a relatively secure place to park it (the industrial park that my business is in). I like the idea of removing tires! I had a boat/trailer stolen in PLeasanton a few years back. The sheriff found it 3 months later in the middle of the wind farms at Altamont Pass stripped to the bare hull. I do not want to leave the red car out in the rain this winter. The garage has no room and we are OUT of space inside at work again!

Patrick..we will chat on Saturday about the "funding" and a enclosed trailer. I know of a few VERY nice used ones that where used for 911 racing cars.
