Trailer Made Out Of Two Wrecked Honda Cars
This one-of-a-kind trailer was made out of two wrecked Honda Civic cars. I cut the cars in half, then turned one of them around and welded the two rear halves together to build a handy 5-ft. wide by 3-ft. long trailer. I pull it behind a 1993 Honda Goldwing motorcycle.
    I call it ęComing or Goin' because you can't really tell the front end from the back. It was a fun project."
    The trailer is as wide as the original cars, giving it spacious room for storage. It has a hatchback tailgate on back. The rear window has a windshield wiper. There's even an exhaust pipe to give the trailer a sporty finish.
    I started with two 1993 Honda SI Hatchback Civics and cut them in half at each rear wheel well, then turned one of them around and welded them together. I used steel tubing to build a hitch.
    It's lightweight, easy to maneuver for hookup, roomy, and pulls easily. It weighs less than 500 lbs. so my motorcycle has no trouble pulling it. There's enough room inside to hold my luggage, a tent, a grill, and numerous other things for travel. I sprayed the inside of the trunk with splatter trunk paint to give it a finished look.
