A too cool photograph that I found on Facebook. Let's hope that the album is public!

There is another picture I've seen of this car and trailer.

Found it


Also found this. A company called American Custom Trailers makes them.

If you need a trailer, that would be about as cool as it could get!

It doesn't look like it would have much room, but still sweet.
