Tony came to the shop to get a B I had for sale, and to get all the AC stuff I had collected over the last 15 years. So if anybody wants the stuff for an AC in a B call Tony he has it. That trailor is a piece of work. Tony and his maker covered all the bases. He even raised the bed hight so the door would clear the fenders. I liked the way he set up to store the ramps too. They are even secured by cables and a pad lock. You know Tony you might draw up the plans and sell them.
 
oh, Tom....tell Tim the homemade top lasted til just right outside Decatur, AL when it started coming apart....&, there was a real top under it...I left pieces of vinyl all down I-565!
 
Thanks for the photos Tony.

Tom's right, you got a 1st class trailer there.

Is it difficult to back? The wheels are further back than what I usually see.
 
It's the easiest trailer I've ever backed...&, it turns on a dime...the 5' ramps are stored alongside in front of the fenders!
 
I know the boat trailor I had for a stern drive ski boat had the wheel near the rear and it was a 100% easier to back that a normal car hauler. I knew that top would hold up better than Tim said.
 
We're in the process of designing a modification so I can tow my Norton...it'l be a long piece of metal shaped to hold bike's tires in place that can be dropped into prepared holes in floor of trailer (3 metal dowel pins)....the dowel pins will align with round tubes welded underneath the trailer floor...we're also adding another set of recessed hooks for the tail end of the bike...plan is: drop the bike channel down in the holes, drive the bike up on trailer, lash bike down at handlebars & rear grab rail....when hauling cars, the bike channel will come off & be stored separately
