Finished my trailer

Should fit a variety of cars from Indy to Phoenix.

Glad it's done now.

Just got to paint it sometime in the future!

Don't forget to lock it to something incredible heavy with a FOff big padlock....

Very nice.

Now we can look forward to " Build your own trailer and tow it for under £250"

Can I suggest you cut the corners off the deck at the rear of the trailer? The inside sticky-uppy bits. If you see what I mean?
I'm finding it hard to explain but you'll find out the hard way if you dont! And then take the trailer to Leeds Galvanising to get it dipped. It cost me about £60 (IIRC) to get mine dipped and it was bigger than yours!!!

Second the galvanising if it's as cheap as that. Also are you intending hard wiring a set of lights on it??? that trailer board is Illegal in that the lights are to far inboard and an eagle eyed traffic nuisance will pick up on it as a valid reason to pull you.

Edited to say after reading my post it looked a bit arrogant in it's statement. Just trying to keep you out of trouble with the BIB.

If it looks wrong it probably is wrong.

You mean the ones that opened my side panel like a tin opener in my other post!

If they are the offending items, then yes, those bits. I borrowed my mates trailer and he had two little lugs welded on the rear cross member to attach his lighting board. They soon got cut off when they ripped the floor out of my car and took the fuel lines and brake pipes with it......
