I would like to take this opportunity to publicly thank Nick for taking his
time on a Saturday and moving my car.
I have tried thank everyone that has shared their vast knowledge and
experience to my many, many questions but Nick has gone above and beyond and
actually showed up at my doorstep, once to help me pull the motor and again
to move the car. We are all lucky to have him as a member of this board.
I am sure there are many others who would lend a similar hand to anyone else
on the board if time and distance were not a constraint. It is this
attitude and outlook that makes this board work so well.
Thanks Nick.

IF some of you folks look at Scott's pics of his 56 Dodge, you'll see my
truck towing his car on a trailer. The car is loaded backwards. This is
just
a warning. We only loaded it backwards because there was no engine in the
car. DO NOT EVER tow a regular car on a car trailer backwards. The weight
of the front of the car will be behind the trailers wheels and will cause
severe uncontrollable fishtail in the trailer. My friend did this years
agao
towing my Mom's 5th avenue and almost wrecked.
When I bought the trailer, I went partners with a couple of friends and I
told them the same thing, but they didn't listen and loaded a station wagon
backwards and came real close to wrecking. So take it from our experience,
always load cars facing forward.
Nick
