A guy I worked with use to haul his vintage boat with his 81 Turbo Trans Am....now that was a sight!

I would never do it myself as I would rather pay $3000 for some old truck to haul whatever than $30 for a trailer hitch to attach to my Trans Am.

Now that I think about it, it might look kinda cool with matching wheels (including those Z-rated tires mentioned previously), and a matching paint job. You could even get crazy and install an uplevel 'bird spoiler (T43) on the roof of it.

Whats that T43 spoiler you speak of?

And I say take the seating area (middle 1/3rd of the car basically) and then attach the front clip and windshield to the back hatch portion for a mini-bird trailer Kind of like how people use the bed from pickups. Pop the hood for storage, and then under the rear hatch is a pop-tent lol Hmm... my Photoshop finger is itching now . . .

T43 is the RPO for the uplevel Trans Am spoiler.

Up-Level as in one on the deck-lid window, or as in the T/A Specific spoiler? I guess I was kinda hinting for pictures lol

Well I was thinking it was up on the glass where it meets the roof

And I found a drawing of the Firebird, so that worked a lot better for me to edit. Anyways, here's your "Firetrailer"

That's pretty cool. I'd probably prefer it without the roof bubble.
