Just find a cheap 80s model ford F-150 pickup. Fabricate a set of ramps
(lumber is fine) and spacers (to get over the wheel wells in the bed) and
use that. I have done it twice now, once with a 69 Midget, and another with
a 74 midget. Once with the spridget backwards too.

Good luck

Thanks to all who have given me their thoughts and the skinny on their
trailers.  I think I will check out a landscape type trailer tomorrow.
The only reservation I had about the generic version I see around here
is that the rear ramps are short (maybe four/five feet) and made with
angle iron covered with expanded steel mat.  Was thinking that a four
foot ramp would be too short thus causing a high "break over" angle
for a spridget???  Also assume that the steel mat would be be too
fragile for the weight????
