Default Has anybody put their 944 on a roll back?

And if so, will it mess up the front bumper/ spolier? My car hasn't moved since last November. It has a shot water pump, and while I do that I am going to do the belts and reseal. So, it needs to be towed there, and a trucking company I work with has offered me a free tow on a rollback. Will this damage the front getting it on there? Thanks

A good operator will have no trouble getting the car on safely. Mine has been towed several times and there has been no damage (other than to my pocket book).

I had my 951 towed on one, and it is lower than stock. They just put some boards down to help it up on the truck. No damage

Same here. Every wrecker driver that has towed one of my 944's has had 2X4's with him to get the bumper over the bed.

Add up another vote for no problems. And my car was pulled uphill onto one (car on a level surface, tow truck behind it and uphill) with low tires.
