Hi

Does anyone have the wheelbase and the track (center to center of front wheels)

I am going to look at one this weekend andneed to figure out which trailer to take

thanks for your help

I've never had a problem with an MGB on any trailer I've owned or rented from U-Haul...my personal trailer is 16' long (including the 2' dovetail) & the B fits great.
 
problem is mostly the position of the ramps,

right now the smaller trailer has the ramps out at the edge,

So I need to move them inward so that the MGA will roll up the ramps ,
this trailer is a wooden flatbed so once its up I am OK

PS....I have had problems with ramp trailers where the car was too narrow for the ramps,
 
I had my trailer made so I can position the ramps anywhere I want....oh, 5' ramps so MGA's don't drag
 
the problem with trailers is the compromise of all the diffurent size cars you need to move or get suckered into moving.....

I have a 16ft dual axle trailer and a 12ft x 6 1/2 flat trailer , plus a single axle ramp trailer ,

another problem is some of the "dead animal" cars end up living on the trailer while they are getting fixed ,

When I had my not street legal race cars I had a trailer for each car !
