Vette(s): 1982 C3 Collectors Edition 44000 miles, sat in the sun most of its life, My wife purchased it for me for Father's Day in 2007 from her girlfriend that had it for 19 years. It is on the road again. I'm retired but it is now my daily driver.
If nothing else Harbor Freight has a small light weight trailer frame that would do as a start. The advantage would be it would be lighter duty than a snow mobile. Google "Harbor Freight trailer". I did and saw lots of pictures of what people have done with the trailer. You could even make a little sleeping trailer out of it. I talked with a couple (not using a corvette) with a small sleeping trailer (he built) traveling around the US last Summer.

If you are gonna do a trailer, why not just get one of those platforms that slides into the hitch receiver. ten you don't have to fool with a trailer.

Joel, you know darn well that if I had a roached vette to make a trailer out of I would end up trying to restore it!
Gary, That is actually a very good idea. I could always rig it with movable extensions so I could sleep on it. I could even attach a tent and a swing out grill. As long as the grill didn't get close to fiberglass
.
.Let's see know. I would need extensions for sleeping and grilling. Attachments for a tent and maybe a hammock. Legs for stability. Sounds like another project.
Dave C..........My mantra: I can not be bought!! Long and short term leases available.

Yeah, I know, Shut up Dave.

Wow, Dave!
This discussion evolved from adding a power port to building a trailer with a swing-out grill! The next thing you know you'll be rebuilding a 427 to power that new cigarette lighter...
