1969 Camaro Tie Down

[watk69]

After almost beating by beloved 69 to death bringing it back from Iowa having it hop around using axle straps at the rear, I only use tire baskets fastened down to E Track in the floor

Hey Clif, just a question about tire baskets,
how do they keep the sprung body from bouncing
any different than axle straps? Thanks DH

My main interest is getting the car as a whole to stay put and not jostle from side to side on a slick floor in my trailer (its a Featherlite with an alum floor&quot;. I don't care too much if the suspension gets exercised on an OEM setup. But your's is a race car and I imagine body bounce on those slicks would not be a good thing at all. So strapping holes on the frame might be the best solution. My car with this welded down L Track system from Mac's the car did not move even a fraction all the way to and from Frederick MD

I've been doing this for years &amp; found it to suit me the best. I have hauled our cars thousands of miles with no problems.
