Transporter - Car and Horse
Ok.... I'm trying to kill 2 birds with one stone here.
My wife has a horse, I have a car...
We need a trailer that will cover both.
I have had the thought of buying a cheap horse trailer, and modifying it to fit my car in too... How I go about this I have no idea yet, that's
where you guys come in.
The thoughts so far are, where the horse box tapers in at the front, chop off the walls, extend the floor so its squared not tapered, and straight
walls, and put the door on the side at the front (exit door). The issue with this is Aerodynamics, obviously the front will be flat and square, not
tapered.
Buy something like this

And make it square, like this
http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/rice-horse-trailer-/141655161795?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_3&hash=item20fb4e3bc3
(but that ones too short and narrow)
Anyway, can anyone else see a suitable way of moving both horse and car? not at the same time btw! any ideas appreciated

We have horses and a horse trailer, have you checked the internal width of a horse trailer. also the width of your car.
What sort of car is it ?

The Sinclair ones at bottom of link look like what you are talking about but still quite narrow,

I've had measurements back from a few on ebay and they're all too narrow, closest was 5cm too narrow (ifor williams)
And the overall length is too short as well
so I guess that's that idea out the window
