Question Making a trailer out of 97 disco?
Hello,

I am new to posting here but have lurked for awhile. I bought a parts truck for my 98 disco and started thinking about a trailer to pull behind my truck.

Anyone done this?

Maybe I can chop it up and do some welding.It's not like I have anything to lose.

It would look pretty cool if done right.

Anyway, hello all

Many have tried. All have failed. I've yet to see one that looks decent.
Welcome, BTW.

That one looks mighty fine to me!

I wish I had the front half, take the motor out, put a fire box in and vent the hood and I got a smoker grill.

E'splain, please. I think it looks solid, but what do you think is wrong with it?
