I need a car moved please help!

[Joe65SkylarkGS]

Ok so I just bought a 65 Skylark vert and I believe it's in Dehli N.Y. which is upstate ny. I did a mapquest and it's 180 miles to my house.:TU:

Anyone around there or here in N.J. that would be willing to pick it up?

Green with white top???
I was watching that auction when the seller pulled the ad.
Looks like a good one:TU:

Spoke to Brian this morning and waiting to hear back from him.:bglasses:

But it sounds like his price is sweet. I couldn't go pick it up myself with a friends pick up and get a uhaul tow dolly for the same money, so hopefully he'll call me with good news tomorrow!!!

Thanks for the lead Bob.:beer Oh and he did remember you, I told him I got his number from you.

Still trying to get this car home.

Brian told me it won't be for another 2 weeks or more before he can help me. Without charging me an arm and a leg.

Anyone.....Anyone.....:Do No:

Is it driveable? 180 miles is not too bad. That sounds like a Saturday to me. I would drive up in my daily driver(not a Buick, Saab 9-5) for good gas mileage with a friend, & follow each other home. Leave at 5-6am & be back for dinner. Joe, are you going to Yardley's on May 10?

It doesn't run. He told me last year he had a guy who worked for him try to tune it up and it hasn't run since then. I know I can get it running after I get it though.

Yes i'm going to Yard's blowout!!!

I think i'm meeting up with the Long Island bunch so we can run up together. Where you coming from?

[GSX-Rated]

I live in West Chester Pa. I am about an hour west of Yardley's.

I think i'm also 1 hr away.:TU:

[GSX-Rated]

Please, God, clear skies for May 10...

Maybe we should take some tools, points, plugs and a carb & go get that car.:TU:

[J-(Chicago)]

Just get a friggin tow bar. Or a buddy and a good chain. Slow and steady wins the race. I pushed my damn car home 15 miles once.

[Joe65SkylarkGS]

Ok so here's the update:

I took Troys advice and tried the ushipit .com and got someone to pick it up for $250. Cheap for a 200 mile haul.

I got the car last night. In the middle of the night. Got to bed a 4 am and it hasn't stopped raining today and haven't been able to get a good look at it, but I allready see it needs interior floor and trunk. Which is normal for any unkept vert. I also see I need lower quater patches and will make a thread in parts wanted.


So thanks Troy for the info on the shipping site!!! I would recommend it to anyone looking to ship a car!!

[J-(Chicago)]

Good. Glad you got her home.
Sorry to hear about your floors.

[Joe65SkylarkGS]

LOL, yea I even had to replace the floors on my 65 and this car was stored in doors for 25 years. It's a northeast thing.

No biggie, if you have the cash.

[J-(Chicago)]

I gotta do rear floors on my 85 Olds next week :ball:
