    Let's see all those 55 caddys out there picking one up for the wife this weekend. And also does anyone know if a 55 caddy 4 door fit on a u haul trailer?

    ...I would really be surprised if you could get a 4 Door Cad on one of those U-Haul Trailers.... My guess would be no...

    I hauled my '56 4 door Buick Estate Wagon on a Uhaul trailer. The wheelbase just barely fit. I think you should be able to get a Cadillac on there.

    My 55 garage find:

    As you can see it fills the trailer rather well. Not all that familiar with U-Haul trailers, but I've seen more than one with a full-sized pickup so your Cadillac should fit. You better, however, make sure the trailer has a payload of at least 5,000 pounds because if your Cadillac is complete that is close to what it will weigh.
     
  29. Hello NMCARNUT! hope you are doing well. To the OP. Do not tell Uhaul that you will be putting that BARGE on their trailer or they will never rent it to you. Tell them it's a Honda.
