Best way to haul a C3

Recommended Posts

In the process of buying a 72 C3. Will one of these get up onto a uhaul car trailer? How about a car dolly? Can I leave it in neutral and go, or would I have to disconnect the driveshaft (auto trans)?

Car does not run at this point, even if it did, I wouldn't want to drive a car up to CV that has been used in two years.

Ask Dan.. he has experience with towing a C3... Like on the poker run.... Sorry Dan ... couldnt resist...

Anyway... I would imagine the best way would be a flatbed, or enclosed trailer. If you have AAA with the premium you get 100 mile free. Tell them it broke down... ;)

Uhaul also offers the dolly where you have the whole car off the ground.

:withstupid Considering I have experience in this area, I'd say Glenn is on the money. Or, if Bryan ends up with a car trailer here pretty quick for his Vega you may have another option.

It's an Auto so a 2 wheel dolly is out. Even in nuetral you can't tow with the rear wheels down.

Since it isn't lowered in the front, it should get up most trailers. Get a UHaul trailer and you might need some planks of wood.

When and where are you picking it up and do you need any help ?

Just in case you need a visual on how to haul a C3. :D

Yeah - get three guys behind and push like hell.

Then, after you have run the cars crossmember hard into the trailer, stop, think and do it the right way.
