SHIFTR: The Best Car Trailer for Restorers & Enthusiasts
If you have a collector car, such as a high-quality E-Type or a restored Charger, you likely own an enclosed car trailer. If not, you probably want one.
But here’s the truth:
Enclosed trailers are excellent for long trips. However, they’re not always ideal for daily runs between workshops, and they’re often overkill for weekend missions chasing your next barn find.
That’s where the SHIFTR lowering trailer comes in.
It’s not replacing your enclosed car hauler; it’s the trailer you’ll actually use more often.
Why Collectors Need a Smarter, More Flexible Option
Enclosed trailers offer protection, but they come with trade-offs:
- Bulky and heavy to tow and manoeuvre
- Tight to load into, especially with wide or low cars
- Time-consuming to prep for a quick workshop run
- Overkill for moves between a painter, tuner, or trimmer
- Not always ideal for solo operation or quick jobs
The SHIFTR car hauler fills that gap, offering collector-level safety and control without the bulk.
SHIFTR Is the Collector’s Utility Trailer, Without Compromise
SHIFTR’s remote-controlled hydraulic deck lowers the trailer to the ground at a gentle 4-degree angle. This allows even the lowest classic or custom cars to load safely and without stress.
Ideal for:
- Quick hauls to local restoration workshops
- Moving between detailers, wheel specialists, or upholsterers
- Returning freshly painted shells or rollers
- Weekend pickup of a project car from another region
- Safely loading customer vehicles or resale stock
What Makes SHIFTR Collector-Approved
- 2050 mm wide deck fits widebody builds, American muscle, and vintage race cars
- Ground-level loading = no ramps, no scraping, no wood blocks
- Over-the-tyre tie-downs = protect paint, trim, and suspension
- Remote operation = smooth, controlled loading, even solo
- Tows with a standard ute, SUV, or light truck, no commercial vehicle needed
- Clean, purposeful appearance that fits right in at any car event
YouTube Builds, Cross-Country Rescues, and Your Next Big Project
If you’re starting a YouTube channel, launching a restoration brand, or documenting your next big build, SHIFTR is the transport trailer that works on-camera and behind the scenes.
Whether you’re picking up a wreck across the country or hauling it home for episode one of your next build:
