Well I got a good deal on a 24' Haulmark Enclosed trailer. I will now retire my open hauler to back to moving our tractor around.

My wife calls it my "rolling man cave" Thats only because I want to install a bar in it complete with plasma TV and jamming sound system!!!

I found out my Suburban's weakness. She needs a new radiator! Anyhow I am installing a new radiator, trans cooler and swapping the 3.42 gears out for 4.11. I already made the transmission bulletproof.... now need the rest!!

Anyhow, enjoy the pics!!

 

The Mazda on the back is a nice touch. I wish I had the money to get a nice trailer like that. Driving to the events and swapping wheels does get old. I have an old Ford conversion van that just sits around waiting for something to pull.

 

Jealous! It looks sweet! Congrats on the purchase!

Im going to have to start looking around for one for the widebody so I can take it on longer trips.

 

welcome to the mobile man cave club!

 

I wish I lived in a nice trailer like that...

 

Yeah, but there's something to be said for the joy of passing all the trailer queens on their way home after kicking their asses on the course.

Especially when your racer has 235,000 miles on her and you're 300 miles from home!

Nice trailer Jim! One of these days.......

Well my friend made me a deal I could not refuse!! I was not really ready for one, but at the price he sold me this.... I had to jump!!

A nice side benefit, I now have more room in my garage!

 

Make sure that the trailer is well and I do mean well secured. For when it's stolen they end up taking two things not just one. Also worth visiting with your insurance agent about how they would handle just that situation. I've read to many posts on car forums over the years where their inclosed trailer with car inside gets stolen.

Otherwise consider me jealous. Nice setup there.

 

That is good advice!! I have two locks on the rear door, and one on the side door.

I have a lock on the hitch, but not on the hitch to receiver. Need to get a locking pin for that.

Also need to have a steering wheel lock. That old school suburban has no security devices at all!!

 

our trailer we just padlock all the doors, and there IS a lock on the hitch.

my other friend who lives in the city bought a car alarm for his, and it'll page/text him if and when it goes off. he also bought a lock for the hitch (its not an option, just buy one) and then he also has a lock for the hitch ball lever.

his trailer is pretty badass too, he put a winch in it, and hooked it up to a remote on his keychain, so he can hit a button and the truck starts, and another button and the car just gets pulled in

he is austin powers for halloween...

 

beautiful trailer~ how much room do you have around ther and in the front for the essentials...you know, tools, tires, a jack, the bar, t.v., and sound sytem you mentioned?

 

Plenty of room!!! I can even get one of my other "playtoys" in with my RX-7.....

My antique Russian Military Motorcycle with sidecar!!!

 

That would make a great pit bike.

 

Nice car trailor, and the bike is awesome!

 

It does make a great pit bike!!! Here it is towing in one of our Lemons cars. We race 2 turbo II 2nd gens!!!

 

Right up the 71 in Chino Hills is a nice trailer park!! You could move in there and set up your own mobile meth lab!!!

 

Do you mind me asking how much you paid?

I need to upgrade to a closed trailer--eventually.

 

$3500

 

TV is a 50" LG Plasma. It will go on the back wall. Left and Right speakers next to TV. Center channel under the TV. I will build a new bar/tool box area in place of the one that is there now.

I also just installed an AC!! That will make the overnight stays at the track nice.

I have about 8 feet of extra room in front of the Mazda. So I have enough room for toys also!!!

 

Man, bring that baby to The Mitty! I'm sure Georgia will be warm enough in May to run some A/C..

 

Awesome!

Time to start saving pennies.

 

is yours insulated? ours isn't and its black, so in the summer its like 1000 degrees inside. my friend's trailer is insulated and white, and its WAY better.

big white box!
big black box!

 

Roof is insulated, the sides are not. Just metal siding and then 3/8" plywood.

That AC is one I have had laying around for a few years. It is a piece of **** and is having a hard time cooling good in the heat of the day. It will turn the trailer into a little icebox at night. This will be OK for the overnight stays at the track....sleep in comfort.

If I need to have a place to get out of the heat, I need to hang a large blanket or use hanging plastic doors (Like commercial cold rooms). Or use accordion doors. If I section off a 8' by 8' area to cool... it should cool even on the hottest of days!
