I'll definitely talk to Ted. I was thinking it might be cheaper to buy the Dively, then have him add on the bits I want.

Also call Bruce Flanders, Forrest Marine and RV in Tyngsboro, MA
978-649-7211
He has sold at least 3 trailers to COM members. Myself (2), Jason Marrota and a friend in the BMW club. Ask him about an open deck trailer and I am sure he will get you some information.

Tracked nice to Mont Tremblant last year. $2100 at http://trailerplaceinc.com/economy.htm or you can drive to western PA and save $150. I waited 4 months last year to see a good open trailer come up and just ended up buying new. Stephan beat me out by about an hour on his steal!
Thanks for the info. Did yours come with D-Rings or the chain brackets for tie-downs? All the pics I've seen have the chain brackets which I'm not crazy about.
Mine did come with chain bracket plates welded in the four corners. I got this tie down set http://www.pegasusautoracing.com/produc ... TIEDOWNKIT and the hooks latch right into the chain plates so I have no issues with that. The only concern I had was the 14" tires, but they don't seem to be an issue either. I did have to weld a piece of angle iron to the end of one of the ramps to keep me from driving off the end.

while i was not on VACA, i was very busy with the charity drive and may i mention we should hit the $25,000 mark!

i am able to do whatever you want mick as long as its not enclosed or made from aluminum ;)

i will say the steel prices are still up right along with trailer parts (steel). i would have to chat with you to come up with a design and price it out. i can add anything from tire racks to tie downs if you want, i could even get you set up with tire bonets opposed to straps to the frame or suspension of the car.

i will text you my work cell # and home #

ted
need parts for your trailer, welding repairs/fabrication (sorry cant do aluminum), tires mounted and balanced, feel free to email/pm me. i am located a little west of nashua. ted
