Yeah I got it for $6k with a 3kw honda generator and a winch. THe trailer has a finished interior and the deck it all diamond plate. The hitch has the anti sway and leveling connections too. I am going to order a AC unit and 20 gallon air compressor. If I could figure out how to shower in it then I wouldn't have to get a hotel room every time I go race.

Just install a shower pan in the corner with a drain out the bottom and hang a gravity fed water bag that heats in the sun during the day. Sorta quasi-camping style.

My dad bought a new one like that without all the cabinets and add-ons for a little over $10,000 two years ago. You got a great deal Carlos, congrats. Do you know how the car fits yet? I know that with my dads a Mustang just fits with all the tools and junk stored in the front. He sold the 20ft one and bought a 26ft one that's taller so he can fit his FJ40 in it when it's done. He had a work bench installed in the front with a tool box and then put a loft up in the front as well. With the Chevelle loaded there is still plenty of open space in the front. However, he has a Chevy 3500 dually deisel to pull it with.

The corvette is about 15 ft long and there are about 3 inches on each side between the car and the wheel wells for the trailer. It's not brand new which is one of the reasons that I got such a deal on it. No cabinets, but it does have a workbench. I will be storing the vette, tools, and kart in it.

I really just didn't want a trailer that didn't have a finished floor and wiring was a must. Now I can go to the track with my power tool and air compressor. I was surprised on how well it towed (anti-sway bars and ez lift bars). Well at least when it's empty. I do need to get one of those brake bias adjusters installed before I start the drive.

Part of the problem is that I am buying a condo dowtown San Diego and very few of them have two parking spots. I also need a place where I can go to work on shit. I am now looking for an AC unit for for it.
