Default Cool shoebox trailer

This belongs to a friend of mine, needs a restoration, but I thought it was a really neat idea!

RalphM, that is too cool. Looks like it has the wheel wells covered like fender skirts! Really cool.

Yea, I really like it too, I don't think I'll talk him out of it as he has a 50 convertible that it would look right at home behind.

No, not his. Although he did have a very rough 50 convertible a few years back.

That would look great behind my 50 shoebox. My car is in about the same condition.
