Hi guys just won this for a great price
http://cgi.ebay.com.au/ws/eBayISAPI....:X:RTQ:AU:1123 Just wondering what car transport company's you guys recommend? The car is non drivable but rolls, steers and hand brake works. Need it transported from Tamworth 2340 to any Depo around Melb or around the south west of Vic. Any help would be great. Thanks Last edited by *Sloxr6*; 01-07-2011 at 08:42 PM. |

You might find it very difficult getting anyone to carry it in that condition.
How about hiring a car trailer and picking it up yourself ?

Yeah I have a car trailer, but a 30hr round trip is a little bit of a long drive. |

Just google car carriers and ring them all, most I rang didn't care if it was running or not I assume they just charge a little extra for the extra work.
In saying that I hired a trailer and did syd-bris-sydney in a day, was a fun mission with a good mate for company. |

Yeah had a look on google most say that it doesn't have to be drivable but they charge extra. Will most likely have to wait till Monday before I can ring any.

What are your plans with it?
Looks like its flood damaged. Hope you realise that if it was written off in NSW, that its classified as a Statutory Write Off that cannot be registered in any State or Territory of Australia. Last edited by Kryton; 01-07-2011 at 09:17 PM. |

The non drivable part is not a problem for them, they just use a forklift.
But they would be worried about it not having a windscreen or bars as this means that there is a lot that they could be blamed for if any damage is found.

Mark andrews transport (stretch) 0418333470
He collected a ford transit non runner from an hour outside Perth and delivered it to me in Geelong, Victoria for $1300 which was really cheap compared to TNT which wanted $3300. Not fast but they get it there |
