Default Trailer

I made me a trailer out of a 1999 GMC Sonoma for my 04 Blazer.

Nice! The only thing that might make it better would be if it were the same color. But it looks great how it is.

I picked the Sonoma up for about $200 as a parts truck. I took what I needed then cut it in half. Added A-frame to the front of the bed then had DMV put Vin on it. So all together I have about $500 into it. You can't pick up a trailer that cheap that's worth anything. Just need to add a cargo box to the front of the bed. Yes it would be nice if it was the same color but for that price don't really care. Thinking about having The whole bed sprayed with bed liner. I think it comes in red also.

Awesome job! Maybe if you can do a thread on it, would be nice to see what all you did.

Always liked these conversions of used trucks... gives part of it a new life... way better then the new ones...

I wouldn't even bother with the bedliner. It looks good as-is. I was just being nitpicky. If you see a killer deal on a camper shell to fit it someday, it would make a nice camping trailer, too. Lots of possibilities.
