That's funny you brought that up. I didn't know that and my son and I pushed the car back, so I could maybe open the door enough to get in it to guide it off the trailer. Well, we pushed too much and the car went right off the back of the trailer. Almost hit the garage door frame.

Nice score but standing in the middle of the trailer like that is not a good idea.

That is definitely worth saving. Interior doesn't look that bad either. Nice score and good luck with it.

I like it!! Beats the heck out of using a chain hoist horizontally for 2 hours just to get the car on the flat bed trailer.
