Help With RC Trailer????
Well, looked and could not find exactly what I wanted. I mostly burn nitro so hopefully this is the right place. I want an enclosed trailer about 5x10 and not real high. Looking for something that will fit in the garage. I have a lot of stuff and it is a pain to load and unload the car now. Most enclosed trailers are too tall from what I have seen. I just want to back it in and park it in the garage and forget it, and have a nice work area. Anybody have one they know will fit in their garage? Any pictures of it??????

Your search maybe tough. I bought a trailer last year (7x16 V Nose) and enjoy it but it certainly will not fit in my garage! The height is going to be the main issue for you depending on what size your doors are. I believe most doors are 7 ft but you need to measure. Also consider how you will access the trailer to use it as work area while in the garage. I am 5'6" and my trailer has roughly just over 6 ft ceiling. Works well for me but others have to duck or bang their heads! If I could do it over again, I would've opted for taller trailer and paid the upcharge.

I'd go for something like this, still nice and low for your garage, has the side door for access in the garage, then the top opens up when your at the track and you can take the family camping if you like...

I bought a 5x8 workforce trailer from home depot. It's def. not big enough to work out of and it barley clears my garage by like an inch. Your not going to find something tall enough to work out of and fit in the garage . I use mine just for transport from house to the track

I race with a guy and he had a trailer custom built and fully finished from Millenium trailers in Indianapolis. It fits in his garage no problem and isn't real tall. I can not stand up in it, but sitting on a normal stool it is really comnfortable. I can work out of it no problem and he works out of it all week long getting the cars ready. It is a 5x10 or a 6x10. All cabintery, outlets, lights were done by Millenium. Tons of storage and laid out really well!!! It is a v-nose with a nice window upfront. Fits in a garage no problem. I just do not want to spend $5,000 like he did to get it all custom built. It is sweet though. Just looking for some alternatives.....

Why not build it yourself?
It is really easy (once you have a trailer lol) to build the body you want with the square section aluminium tubing and plastic joiners. Just hacksaw the lengths and click it all together.
Then sheet it with 0.8mm sign sheeting and glue it on with Sikaflex or similar polyurethane like motor body builders use. No rivets, no welding, no fuss.
