Trailer specs
Kevin:
Glad to see your progress! I bet after all that effort you will be happy to see it go away for a while
. What do you have on the bare metal surfaces to keep it from oxidizing?
And that trailer looks really special. Might I ask it's specs, like length, weight, capacity, maybe cost if you wish to share?
Good luck in the Next Phase! If you get the itch to fabricate some more parts, I've got plenty of candidates.
Cheers!

The car is looking great so far. 
Keep us up to date with the build. I love the trailer too. I noticed one went for a good price on eBay recently. Wish I could afford one, then I could pull the Pontiac with the 62 convertible.

I bought the trailer from American Trailers LLC in Mineral Wells, West Virginia and it was an Ebay buy. It is a 2010 Featherlite 3110 model. Trailer lists for around 8K but they had a no reserve auction with a buy it now of 5295.00 It got close to the buy it now, so I did. It is a 17'6" with the larger 9600# GVW torque flex axles. 79" between fenders. Removeable fenders. Really nice all aluminum trailer. I bought it planning on getting it shipped to me in Maine for either 480.00 or I could go get it for 300.00 in gas and 1500 miles round trip. Funny thing is when I called them after the auction ended, he said one of the guys in the yard had sold it tthat day by mistake. He offered me a 20 ft. for the same money or get the 20 to use, and when a replacement 17'6" one came in, he would send a guy up to swap it out. If he was willing to send a guy up to swap it out free of charge, I proposed me waiting for the replacement and he would ship it to me for free? He said no problem, I can do that, so 4 weeks later I got the new 17'6" one delivered for nothing. They do make a 7K GVW for about 500.00 less.
Great buy! Sounds like the one I was watching on eBay.Congratulations on a great purchase.
Loaded the 62 today in prep for the painter being ready soon. It also gives me more garage space as I want to keep my new Featherlite trailer inside for now.
Looking great!!!
