2008 Pace American Enclosed Rallye Silver Steel Car Trailer
Model #RT8520TA2, 8.5X20 with Extrawide 96" Wide Ramp Door with ramp extensions, aftermarket aluminum rampovers (over the wheel wells), 10ft of horizontal wall E-track in front of trailer for attachment of tires and accessories, recessed floor D-rings for tying down all 4 wheels, 54" side door for exiting, and extra wheel.

This trailer was designed to take specifically the stock Ford GT (or other car with low clearance), and I can tell you it is easy to drive our gal into her. It took several modfications to get these ramps just right...drove her on and off until clearance was not a problem. I also have a winch installed in case it was ever needed, though I never needed it to move the car in or out. The rampovers and door ramp extensions mean that you never have to worry about dinging the wheel wells.

I will post some pics when I have them available. I have decided that I don't like trailering (Ha!) and now I have an alternative...storing my tires and extra wheelset at a VIR garage! Problem solved. I have used the trailer a total of 5 trips to VIR and back (89 miles one way). So, the trailer is essentially new.

The whole set up minus the weight distibution hitch/sway bar (for use with the Cayenne) cost me about $12500. Will let her go for $10K even and throw in the hitch if you need it. Please PM me if interested.

Do you know the interior length of trailer, as I'm looking for something for my GT, and a long 50's American sled.

Sorry if I am jumping in but I thought this would help.
Pace builds a very nice trailer and had a solid reputation.

I think it will be a little short for me, as I'd like to be able to load 19' long or so cars. Wouldn't leave any wiggle room. I guess I'd probably need the next size up.

I agree that it may be too small. I have a few feet in front of my GT loaded into the trailer where I can put another set of wheels/tires and jack...but not much more room than that. Hope to add pics this week.

Additional pics of the GT sitting in the trailer with left and right rear wheels on ramps with tie downs. Wish I have some pics so you could see the entire car in the trailer but I don't.

Congrats. I wish it were a few feet longer and it would have been mine.
