Once I'm finished with the CMC build, I'd like to free up my garage spot. I'm going to have to pay to store the trailer, so I figured I might as well get an enclosed trailer so I can just keep the car in it.

Anyone do it? Any concerns or problems?

Thanks,
Steve

I stored my Firebird in my trailer for years. No concerns with theft as it was on private property and well away from sight.

I used a plastic hall runner from Lowes to catch drips so as to not mess up my carpet. Also had a catch pan under the engine/trans. Real thin thing that I think was for gas/charcoal grills to drip on.

Make sure the top vents are solid and don't leak or can blow up. I used roof cement to keep the seams coated and in the inside dry.

In the winter I would drain the radiator and leave the hoses off/unhooked. Put the crappiest tires on the car and store the rest in your basement. If you have cabinets...get anything out that would freeze or be damaged by freezing.

They make locks that go inside the ball area and I had one of those when it was unhooked and not otherwise secure. Get good round padlocks for the doors. The kind that can't be cut with bolt cutters.

If you're not keeping it on your property...I wouldn't put any kind of stickers on it period and don't make a habit of having the doors open or load/unload the trailer at the storage area. I disagree with Glenn...theives are going after whatever is on the inside such as tools, car parts, ...etc. Very hard to sell a 24 foot stolen trailer on ebay. Much easier to sell roofing/concrete/drywall tools! At least here in the midwest...most trailers are found in the country abandoned with the contents missing.
