Best bet on that would be to disconnect the drive line if you use a "dolly". If you try and pull it with the rear wheels on the dolly you are asking for a jacknife as there is more wieght on the ground than there is on the dolly/hitch, upsets your pulling ballance.

Try typing "Car Trailer" in an Ebay search and look at the ending soonest to get some idea of the selling prices. Who knows, you might find a good used one in your area that's in a price range that you can afford. There's also quite a few new ones on there too if you want to go that route.

Also check out Racingjunk.com, Two years ago I bought my 24' enclosed car hauler advertised on there by a guy about 30 miles from me, $3100. It has full electric (30Amp), A/C, fully insulated, panelling, electric jack, and a 20' awning. I put new tires on it this year for $300.

My 7'X12' single axle trailer came from a pawn shop for $400.

You can get more trailer for the dollar buying used.
