Trailer Dimensions

I am planning on trailering my father's 1931 Model A Cabriolet and would like to use an enclosed trailer. Does anyone know what dimension trailer I might need?


Thanks
 
I use a 16' which give me a little room to get around for the tie down and some supplies. A 14' would work but is starting to get a little tight. Now this would be for a pickup or coupe. A 2 or 4 door sedan will require more length. I'd suggest trying the trailer out if possible. Take your vehicle and see if they will let you drive it into the trailer.
 
I use a 16 for my roadster and Town sedan. Plenty of room, with a trunk. The car is only 13 foot.
 
I have what the manufacturer calls a 18', but that is the rectangular floor space area. It has a V-nose so that space is added. It has a work bench and plenty of room to haul or store stuff in. As whirnot says, 13' is Model A car length, pickups may be longer.
 
Look to see if the door opening is high enough. Some trailers will not load your car without letting air out of the tires. I got my trailer 12" taller than normal to clear ever thing and have excessive overhead clearance. A 6" extension might have worked but the adder was cheaper than a new trailer
