I want to offer this up to the Kolb list before I advertise elsewhere. I am selling the enclosed trailer for my MKII. I just finished a toy hauler conversion for the Kolb and no longer need this trailer. Pictures can be seen on my web site http://home.comcast.net/~mmorrison123/kolb.htm . It has a new jack, new tires plus extra tires and rims, and built in storage for gas cans and oil. The Kolb loads very easily and it tows with my PT Cruiser. I'm only asking $500 and it's located in PA. Please contact me off the list if you're interested.
Thanks and Happy New Year
Malcolm Morrison

Hi Malcolm Morrison - ref your trailer for sale - I would like it for the Kolb Mk III Classic I am repairing - problem is I live in the UK. So I'm going to have to build my own - to a similar design to yours. What is the material used for the framework? How are the end doors constructed? Any further design info to help would be greatly appreciated.
Happy New Year!

The subframe is an old trailer frame, 9 x 6 feet, and the tougue was extended with steel channel to create an open trailer (see picture on my site). When I bought the Kolb and trailer I extended and enclosed it by welding inch and half inch steel tubing in a truss to make a light and very rigid frame. 1 inch base and cross members and half inch for the upright hoops and truss. I added half inch plywood floor, front, and doors, as well as storage boxes over the wheel wells. My first tarp was from Harbor Frieght, and it did not hold up. I now have one from Lowes, and it seems to be holding up just fine. I have 6 foot pull out ramps and a tail dolly. It takes less than 30 minutes from arrival at the trailer to get the Kolb out, rig, fuel, and preflight. I keep the trailer at the local gliderport and it saves a ton of money compared to hangar rent.
