Cobalt Trailer

Hey guys, since I'm selling my Goblin I decided to go ahead and sell the Cobalt trailer we built for it as well.
The frame was built with 1/8" thick 2" square tube and was welded to the body in 6 spots.
It's wired for 7 pin connector so all lights work and there's an extra wire for accessories.
18" Drag DR-64 wheels w/ like-new Yokohama tires
Brand new wheel bearings, re-drilled for 5x114.3 bolt pattern
Brand new shocks and lowering springs
Also has 2 leveling jacks mounted to the frame in the back.
Still has the seat and the "front door" props open for shade!
Includes the pin-on wheel holder bar but the wheels/tires mounted to it would be extra if you want them.
No title since that was used to register the car. Trailer titles aren't required for smaller trailers in Wisconsin but I can include a BoS or whatever you need to get it titled in another state.

I'm asking $1,100 for it
Located in Janesville, WI
The wiring is standard 7-pin so you can pull it with a regular vehicle as well but you might need a bit of a drop hitch to make the trailer level.

You can WATCH the full build on our YouTube channel!

I made a post on another thread about pulling trailers to give an idea of what pulling it was like:
"The Cobalt trailer we built weighed in at about 800lbs completely empty so I'd have to guestimate that it was probably around 1200lbs or so full with the wheels on the front, our gear, tools, cooler, canopy, etc. I really thought it was going to be lighter than that so I was a little surprised to see that number on the scales! We had roughly 10% tongue weight empty but with the wheels on the front I'm sure that percentage was a little higher.
The Goblin had no problem accelerating with it but I also make a pretty decent amount of power, however, it really didn't like the highway speeds. The car is already not so aerodynamic and then we darn near doubled the weight and pulled a wall behind us. I'm sure the shopping cart on the roof was partly to blame too though.
Braking was fine but according to the laws I read you have to have trailer brakes if the trailer weighs more than half the vehicle weight so we were definitely illegal there but the car didn't have any issues stopping. I should probably mention that I have Brembos on all 4 corners so I'm sure that helped a bit. We didn't have any emergency stop situations so I can't say if it would have held traction or not under those conditions.
Steering was never an issue, we didn't had any understeer or trailer sway or anything. The steering did feel a little lighter than normal. It did a fantastic job of holding the car straight while doing burnouts though!"

Ark :D
Without a doubt, one of the coolest projects on here, and priced to sell as well. I wish I had a use for this.

Good luck with the sale!
