haha, GEEZ you guys carry the kitchen sink , unfortunately I have to make the racing so the wife doesn't see it as an all consuming passion  so i need to have a wagon at least something that she can drive to the shops n back
thanks for all your replies, now I have the size i can do some measuring up.

I have no garage and live in a two bedroom unit and Im allowed one of the rooms to store and work on the kart, so well have to see how that goes, probably move into the living room within the first wekk! haha.

Y ou guys live in luxury.

I started making a trailer 6 years ago. For the last 3 years, all it has needed is the doors fitted along with seals and rego and shes a goer.
Oh well, I will finish it in the next few months as finally time should permit.

It will be really good to be able to back it in the garage after a race meeting and just unhook it. No more unload whilst nackered.

You travel light Sam.
I also have radio's, trophies and PA on board.
And sometimes even a Bluey, and you know what he likes to bring.
 

None of the above.......I wouldn't go where Donald Trump has been....not even with 3 safety balloons.

This is how you fit it all in a van with everything imaginable packed, however someone already has their name on my van and I'm having a little trouble at the moment finding a suitable replacement.

Seriously......?
If you're looking to buy a vehicle.........
Buy a van, no disassembly required (usually)
or a trailer.
(Yes I know I have to fit wets to the rear of mine, but it ALL fits, tools etc.)

Actually I think young Sam may have a vehicle for sale......?

Correct, Cookie and Matt.

To the Philip Island National round in May I took,

1x Complete Anderson Marage (only the nose cone removed)
1x compressor with 10 metre hose
1x 12 draw Kinchrome toolbox
3x  spares breifcases
4x  large plastic boxes 500 x 500 x 650mm (full of spares, special tools etc)
6x  sets of wheels complete
1x  spare complete engine
1x  pair of spare pipes and mufflers
1x  60l fuel drum
1x  25l fuel drum
2x deck chairs
1x  removed nosecone
1x  spare Commodore wheel/tire (lpg tank is in the spare wheel well).
1x  kart stand strapped to the roof needing 2 rear slightly ajar windows to pass the straps through (no roof rack)
1x thermos flask
1x  Me

all in a VT Wagon.


As cookie said, the new Anderson Maverick is wider so the wing, rear wheels and side pods have to be removed as well as the nose.

To answer your question Feno,
1220 wide x 580 high is the size of a Anderson Mirage with standard wing end plates and it will fit into a Commodore Wagon with a raised floor for the donut LPG tank.

Except the latest one which is something like 70mm wider than the previous model.

Scott Ellis seams to get his around in the back of a VT wagon just fine

It is hard to narrow down that list just to one, so here is my top 3 in no particular order.  Absolutely stunning they are all 3 tied for 1st in my book.


Belgium
Costa Rica
Croatia
