p.s.
wasn't the prowler like the originator of the "matching trailer" idea?

Something like this could be done with a 3S.
The Audi looks awesome and that could be do with a 3S but as Hans said it would be tongue heavy.
The to back halfs trailer could be a great camper.
The Mustang is really cool and a lot of storage space.
Edit: you know, after looking at those pics, I do have a good front clip left on my parts car!?! Lol
OK So been busy getting other things done around the house and looking for a new job as my current one is driving me nuts.
So here is the current update I have on the trailer.
I got the drivers side skirt/cap cut and test mounted. Need to fill in the open ends with expandable foam and fiberglass but that wil all be done when the sheet metal if complete. I also got the driver door window piece cat and mounted. I am still on the look out for a driver lower window door trim in crappy condition. Got a passenger side from the junk yard last week but it was missing the drivers door so no luck on that piece.
I also took the old floor piece I cut out and I am modifying it and mounting it back almost where I cut it out. The metal is good and strong and it saves me from buying thicker metal for the floor pan. No Pics of the floor yet. I'll get some when I get it all finished off. Also spent time sealing alot of the seams before I get to far ahead and box the seams in.
Here's the most recent pics:

Keep it going.
Wow! That's a project for sure. Looking forward to the finished results.
Quick update!!
Not much to report, been really busy lately and the weather has been so shitty lately.
Well I finally got some free time this weekend. so I got to at-least get the trailer enclosed. Now I need to do a little more welding and that should be the last of the metal work. I have a few spots that need to hit with some seam sealer and then it's all body work.

I hooked it up and took it for the first test pull with the stealth today. Just around the neighborhood since I don't have it registered yet. The trailer tracked perfectly at 45mph "Fastest I can go in the neighborhood"! No swaying or bouncing and I barley felt any difference in how the car itself handled.
I can't wait to get this thing completed!!!
