*Revived and updated* Enclosed trailer / camper idea - thoughts?

[djjerme]

Shoot, I just picked up a Super Eta at Auction, and there's another 2 door Eta next week that I have an $80 bid on..

You just have to know where to look.


..and have a business license to get the sweet deals.

:P

Please, everyone, go switch to e36's. More e30's for me.

[djjerme]

..and the value of E30's keep going up every time someone gets desperate for cash and parts out their project car.

:)

that said, e36s are much better cars from an engineers stand point.

e30s only look cooler. but that's the only thing that matters anyway.

Last I checked E30 rear subframes didn't rip the sheet metal out of the chassis, the diff didn't have a single bolt holding the front to the subframe, the front sway bar mounts didn't tear out of the chassis, and the door cards didn't disintegrate for no reason. Not that the E30 doesn't have it's problems, but from a quality of construction standpoint I think it is actually designed better. Just my opinion, though.

and sound cooler.

He made mention of the fact that he'd see us all when we finally graduated to the e36 & e46. He was a big ole dbag. Good riddance.

Is anyone else as sad as I am that Jalopi got banned?

good riddance, what a dick

[djjerme]

..yeah, I guess that could bring it on you.

[IronFreak]

He's a big ass troll.....that being said he's a cool dude. I know him outside of this forum.

He went on rant about how R3V sucks, and I think posted in a few threads. At the very least he said he would never return here, then got banned.

[djjerme]

What brought the Ban Hammer? Couldn't find any threads on his history that were truly ban worthy..

Or did he sleep with someone's mom.

Look for some of the old F1 transports from the 50's/60's. Most were single chassis transports and fairly self contained.

They come up on Bring A Trailer occasionally for sale, but go for mucho $$$.

This is awesome.

It's right next to the idea I had for using an old flat bed tow truck. Even more awesome would be if it had a rear cab (that would normally seat 3 people, but convert to a bed with storage below). The idea was that the rear main hoop on the flat bed would be turned into a tire rack, with a huge storage box below.

The plus side would also be if a friend's car needed a tow you could tow it home on it's built in dolly system (better than $400 for a 300 mile tow!).

Do it. I want to see this done asap.
