Default Trailer for 69 camaro

What size open trailer would you recommend for a 1969 Camaro? I have a friend with a 14' open trailer for sale however I am afraid it will not be long enough. Has anyone pulled a 69 Camaro on a 14 footer?

The ones you rent at Uhaul can't be much more than 14ft. And I know you can haul a 67 on one.

Is it a Car trailer or a landscape trailer? I can not remember seeing a car trail at 14 ft unless it was like the Uhaul design. The smallest flat bed car trailer I remember is 16' X 6'-10" I don't think I have seen any "real" car trailers that would not haul a Camaro.

It is a car hauler. It does not have the dove tail, the entire trailer is flat with pull-out ramps. Here is the description and link to the site:


Load-Trail CH-8314 7000lb Car Hauler

The bed is 83” Wide x 14’ Long
Steel Floor
D Rings (4)
2 – 3500lb axles w/2 Electric Brakes
Rub Rail


http://67.199.42.2/CH7.htm


My friend bought it for $3500 and wants 2k for it. It was bought in 2006, has 80 miles on it and has been garage kept.




Is that a 14 foot trailer above?

I don't see why that trailer wouldn't work. The overall length of the 69 is about 14' 9". And the front to back tire contact area to the ground is right around 9' center to center. That trailer is certainly heavy duty enough too, and the price is right.
