Good to have a nice size garage / tight fit :D
Just test-fitted the Vette on the trailer in my garage.. and it fits... with about 1.5 inches clearance front and rear...

Very nice Olivier. 
I bought a truck this year with hopes of getting a trailor to take my vette to the track with. There's no way that would fit in my garage

Nice when it fits in the garage. I store my boat in a garage and it has 6 inches to spare without the trailer, so I put it on blocks. Now you don't have to worry about anything breaking.

Looks good, I see now of your need for the length to fit the garage.
The new drivetrain changes you are doing will really make your car a lot quicker and stronger. I'm interested in seeing the new times. j

it looks good 1.5" might as well be 10' as long as it fits.

It looks good......
The width of Corvettes make them fit real close on 8 ft. wide trailers, and you have to be careful not to scrub the wheels on the edge rail.
I bought a nice electric winch from Sams Wholesale for less than $100 that makes it easy when they are not running.

By the looks of that first picture, O, you better hope that your new solid-axle/wheel-tubs/big-slick project will still 'fit' between the fender-wells......
Once had a Blazer with over-sized wheels/tires 'try' to get on my trailer:
it wasn't pretty.....
