i thought these were just getting tuned? anyways your going to be hard pressed to find someone with a truck and a trailer for car and even more hard pressed to find anyone willing to travel that far. my suggestion is find someones truck that you can rent, then rent a trialer from uhaul. thats the easiest option for you.

Please James I think it’s time to kill you.  
What are you gonna do with the other two S12s when you’re done tuning the first one?

well, ones suppose to be a parts car, the other is a notch-back, so i might end up making one a DD and the other a drift car. theres also a chance i might end up selling both to and making my current S12 super crazy. I just didnt want to see the other two S12’s go to junkyards.

speaking from experience. its always good to have a backup DD apart from your main car. that way no headaches when your main car decides to call in sick.

Amen. My car’s been calling in sick a lot this summer. Not as much as your finicky bitch though :R  
I’ve been pulling my 6 hour fixes each time something happens.

hahahaha you don’t fix shit. You fall asleep under the car while Bountywolf does all the work, then you drop off the car on my driveway and tell me to fix it, just after Bountywolf and I pulled off the Plenum on my car TWICE.

So yeah James, I’m gonna see if my friend can help you out. He has a few trucks and a really Handy Car Dolly. I just sold something for him so it might be time to call in a favour. I’ll let you know.

Alex I believe the correct scientific turn for assistant in the mechanical world is “tool bitch”

“Hey tool bitch get my size 12mm socket…bitch lol”

Sorry James. My friend said it’s a no-go.  
He was towing a car home one night with his car dolly and a cop pulled him over.  
He was missing the plate on his home made Car Dolly. He had one on there but it was Ziptied on and he guesses it probably got torn off by plants or blown off by the wind.  
Anyway, he hasn’t had a chance to re-register it so now it’s parked until he has some time to get another one.

hahaha no no. At separate times I fell asleep in the car on his passenger seat, and he fell asleep underneath the car while holding up the exhaust for me to bolt it onto the downpipe.

No no. You need a truck with at least a Class III trailer hitch. A smaller hitch (like what’s offered in Crappy tire etc) will just yank off with the first few tugs.  
Class III hitch is good for 5000lbs and smaller, which exceeds the weight of a dolly and S12 by almost double.  
You might be able to squeeze by with a Class II hitch (3500lbs). Even though the strength of the hitch exceeds the weight of the S12, it may fault with uphill loads.
