Ed by the way nice to see that drag racing isn't your only hobby, great pictures from Cecil Dragway. Quite funny, did a Gremlin do this to your Gremlin.

Quote:"Ed, this is exactly what I am looking to do. What size trailer do you have axels etc? Also, where is your water tank for your sink and where do you carry your bed?, in the back of your truck? I like the use of the space. Sure beats my open trailer. Thanks"

Robert,It's an 18" Cargo Mate trailer.It originally had barn doors.I built a ramp door from scratch in 2004.It has 3500# axles.The 8 gal water tank and pump is under the sink,with a diverter valve to pump water to a hose with a kitchen sink sprayer.That and a clothes washer pan with a drain and curtain is my shower setup.
The bed is suspended by an E track with brackets to hold a 2X4 frame,folding plywood
base and air matress and sleeping bag.I slso have an Etrack setup to move the brackets,frame and matress and sleeping bag to the front,over the hood of the car.
I sleep up there when I get to a track and park outside of the gate.It's a bit tight with the moped in front of the car.Sometimes I take the moped and leave it outside,usuaaly when I'm not going to sleep right away.
I can post more pics if you need any further info.
All in all it works for me.
You might want to see how I tie the car down in the trailer also.Just ask.

Claude,
I"m still trying to figure that out.Didn't see any foot prints though,or empty beer cans.

I appreciate the info. Yes, I would like to see more pictures of your set up. It is very creative and well thought out. How do you set up the shower again? Do you have warm water?

The water in the tank stays warm enough to use as is,in the warm months.Otherwise I have a small 110 volt flow through water heater that mounts to the door on the sink enclosure for the cooler weather.
I'll get some pics to you when I get a chance.

Go Hummer rig & Bob Hershey's rig from 1970's, Bob was ahead of his days when he put that camper on a big truck frame and did the goose neck trailer.
