Chariot trailer

HardyBoysRacing · 10/30/13, 7:00 AM

Hey y'all I'm building a '55 F100 push truck and looking for pictures of 50's/60's Chariot trailers or vintage trailers for a champ or sprint car. Like to have the whole combination to carry our car to the races next season! Any help would be appreciated! Thanks!

My friend Gregg Kishline up in Kenosha has a Watson dolly wheel trailer that was used to transport Indy cars in the '50/60's. It isn't for sale but he probably would let you take photos and measure it. These trailers are often seen in period photos behind station wagons or small pick-ups. The dolly wheel takes the tongue load.

PM me if interested in seeing the trailer.

My brother still tows his sprint car with one, I'll get a couple photos. It is an old Watson.

nice content and written well for a change. It's nice to see that some people still understand how to write a quality post.

I've seen several of these in the past 3-4 years, been trying to figure out if they were any good/safe, and how well/if they worked, saw them on several different applications, and they were factory installs. Bob
