Lateral-g Forums - 69 Camaro Project

When the time comes ... I suggest a TPD trailer. They are the best built small to medium size enclosed car trailer. They tow & brake excellent. Super well built. Have the sealed axle bearings changed every two years & it will last as long as you want it. Then when you sell it, you're probably get your money back.

I had several. The 20' with two 5200# axles or 24' with three 3500# axles are awesome combinations. You can see them here.

In so many words, that's what the owner of the shop said. :faint:

Ron,

Did you convey you have no problem paying for quality work and materials, but you just felt uneasy about paying for the addition on his house too?

:waveflag:

Towing was an episode of keystone cops and a little harrowing - U-haul sucks and I gotta buy a trailer.

Anyway, I took a page from Charlie and Mark and did something similar to Jack A$$ since we have the same front/rear suspension. 3"/16 ga. 304 SS and expansion joints, v-band clamped to a siamese x-pipe (corvette style), into my custom offset Borla XR1s and up and over the axles. All mandrel bends, Tig and purge welded.

I almost fainted when I got the quote today.:waveflag:

Done right, and should be out of the shop next Wednesday.

ok what did ya pay? that would be $2500 in my shop. I thought I read 3/16" tube. LOL

Sounds bad asss bro.

That number is about right Bro. I do need to set the record straight though: my comment on cost in no way reflects on the vendor quality or fairness of his pricing. I'm just used to buying junky 4x4 cat-back stuff. Now I know better :sieg:
