Emergency trailering needed (PA to NJ)

Verne_Frantz · #1 02-22-2008, 04:23 AM

I'm between a rock & a hard place. I need to have my '62 transported from Gilbertsville Pa to Hightstown NJ ASAP ENCLOSED. The weather is not good for an open trailer or roll-back. It needs to move Fri, Sat or Sun. I will cover ALL costs plus what-ever you want for the tow. I'll throw in dinner here at my place. I'm causing my friend a problem because the car is done and is now taking up space in his shop for billable hours for him. I've tried every other avenue I know of and nothing is working out. Please pm me if you can help as soon as possible.
One way is about 86 mi. Is there anyone who can help me so I don't hurt a friendship?
Thanks

Verne

Verne I can probably do it with my 24" trailer if you need me. It also depends on the weather, with the storm coming in tonight through Saturday. I wouldn't want to chance doing this in an ice storm! Give me a call. I will PM you my #.

I can back Steve up over the weekend if needed.

My trailer is open, but I'm about 25 miles from Gilbertsville and can offer inside storage if it helps.

You guys are the greatest

I'm trying to unravel the knots in my stomach. I talked to Njsteve and Ronnie. I'll call Ronnie tomorrow night to see how much ice etc he has, then call Steve Sat am. Steve doesn't want to experience another icy tow like he had to years ago, especially with someone elses car!
I'll try to keep everyone else posted. Al & Dog, thank you both so much!

Depending on what happens, I may still may some extra help. Like I said, you guys are the greatest!!!!!

If any of you ever need any help from me, you've GOT IT!!!

"I'll throw in dinner here at my place."

I highly recommend one of you taking advantage of this.
They cook up a real good meal over there.

It turns out this is going to be a Sun am trip. I'm meeting Steve and we'll do the deed. He'll have a rain check for dinner anytime, unless he wants waste time and brouse around old truck motor parts until dinner time.....

Hey Verne...

Just noticed this post..I live in Yardley pa, about 15-20 miles to hightstown...but have no clue where Gilbertsville is...?? Anyway, I have a nice enclosed trailer that I hardly ever use...Ive had it 4 years and havent used it more than 10 times...Anyway, if you are in a pinch and it doesn't work out with NJSteve, let me know...I am a bit busy tomorrow, but you are welcome to borrow it and if you need my suburban you can use that too... as long as you buy the gas!! I hate to drive the thing because of that!! All this Go Green talk..hehe...ok..its really the price of gas!!
Anyway, I will be around today, so let me know... Max
