Although not an enclosed trailer, I fitted the trailer I used with E-track. I
used wheel nets (or whatever they are called) to secure the four tires to the
trailer leaving the car to move freely about on its suspension. I secured the
E-track to the trailer boards with through-bolts (stainless, of course) with
nuts and fender washers underneath. About every third - fourth hole focusing
on the areas where the ratchet straps connect.
I cannot address any other questions. 120 Vac and AC sounds rather posh. I'd
be tempted to live in it when I'm not traveling.

Subject: [Shop-talk] Enclosed car trailer
Sometime in the next 6 months or so I'm thinking about buying an enclosed
car
trailer for hauling my TR6 behind my motorhome.
For those of you who may have
been down this road I'd like to ask a few
questions:
1) Did you use E-track
for tying the car down?
2) If you used E-track how did you fasten it to the
floor?
3) If you used E-track how hard is it to tire bonnets with ratchets
on a
small car like a TR6?
4) If you didn't use E-track how did you tie the
car down?
5) Did you get an extended tongue?
6) Would you prefer a
torsion axle over leaf springs?
7) Did you get any 120vac wiring installed
or did you wire it yourself for
120vac?
8) Did you opt for a roof top air
conditioner?
9) Did you buy a 7' wide, 8' wide or 8'-6" wide trailer? And
why did you
select that width?
Ok maybe more than a few
questions!
Thanks!
Brad
