Tonik Posted May 1, 2023 Report Share Posted May 1, 2023 Ok, so the kid wants a trailer for the DeLorean. I view the requirements as below: 1) Low deck and a long ramp. The DeLorean has low ground clearence. 2) Need to measure and figure out width. The doors swing up, but still out quit a bit. 3) Enclosed. Rain, even the wind, will destroy the fancy bolt on B2TF stuff on a long haul. What else am I missing that it needs? Money is pretty much no object. Where do I look, custom....dealers around Cleveland/Akron that you folks may know of? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

motocat12 Posted May 2, 2023 Report Share Posted May 2, 2023 Putting the tow vehicle's back axle on ramps is a trick for low clearance. What if you got a carnie serving style awning door for ingress and egress? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

durk Posted May 2, 2023 Report Share Posted May 2, 2023 I actually use the trailer’s jack to raise my trailer in the front to lower the ramp on my open trailer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tonik Posted May 2, 2023 Author Report Share Posted May 2, 2023 (edited) 3 hours ago, Pauly said: How do you get out of the car? The side panels are removable. This car has to go into an enclosed trailer. It can't travel in the wind and God forbid it rains. So it needs removable sides or it has to be wide enough to get the door open. Please refer to the first post where the requirements for this trailer are listed. Edited May 2, 2023 by Tonik Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We drive our cars. They aren't trailer queens. ...mine also isn't worth buying a trailer for and TBH being over 19 feet long I don't even want to think about the cost of an enclosed trailer for it. lol Edited May 3, 2023 by Otis Nice 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The front trunk is full of special effects gizmos for when it is parked. The flux capacitor is upside down in the video, we fixed that right away. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tonik Posted May 3, 2023 Author Report Share Posted May 3, 2023 New frame underneath, new upgraded suspension all around. 4 wheel disk brakes and the engine has been converted to fuel injection. 88 mph is no problem in this car now, at all. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You mean as long as it's in an enclosed trailer? You know, so the "optional equipment" doesn't fall off.... 😕 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
