Unless the trailer had tung actuated hydraulic brakes that is an awesome way to warp some rotors!

No hydroboost here. Guy in the for sale section has some bags for sale, might look into those. I definitely don't need the on board compressor and gauge, towing Is rare for my truck right now. I do have 14" slotted rotors up front and ceramic pads to help a little bit.

On an open trailer with a lightweight car like the 67 Camaro, you should not have too much of a problem, one of the most important items is making sure you have the proper tongue weight (500-650lb) and the car centered on the trailer. Check Craigs list often and you might snag a cheap set of equalizing bars and brake controller. With those you probably will not even need helper bags. When I towed my Corvette with my 2001 Yukon, it felt like there was nothing back there and it towed very evenly with the equalizer bar and brake controller. In towing remember, safety is No. 1
