Isn't anyone out that way heading to Chickasha with an empty trailer?

Looks like you may have to go to Auburn and rent a U-Haul trailer. :(

Depot Hack Transport

Post by Novice » Sun Mar 10, 2019 4:10 pm

Mike. This is not Your first rodeo. My advice is to Just go ahead and bite the bullet. Call Bill. FJ or one of the other car transporters to haul it for You.The Hack will be in good hands with professionals that do it for a living in a enclosed trailer no spring hail storm surprises. even with transport charges You still got a whale of a deal.

I passed on a nice hack in CA a few years ago because of transport costs been kicking my self ever since.
My two cents worth maybe less! Good Luck Jim.

Jim -- It probably will come to that. This car is not mine, I'm just trying to help out a friend by saving him some $$ on transport. If no one steps up to help by bringing it to Chickasha, he will pay the going rate to have it moved to my shop so I can do some work on it.

Measurements

Post by FreighTer Jim » Mon Mar 11, 2019 10:03 am

Mike,

The Buyer called me awhile back.

If I remember correctly - he said he was buying that vehicle for the body.

At that time he had not paid for it.

I advised him to get measurements ( length - width - height ).

If he is buying it for just the body - maybe it can be taken off the vehicle to make transport easier ... :idea: .

Plywood Hack

Post by Novice » Tue Mar 12, 2019 1:56 am

Mike. The hack looks nice and runs. The body looks good but appears to be a reproduction made with a lot of plywood. for less money and cheaper shipping. If the body is all He wants. He can buy a reproduction depot hack body made with real wood from one of the Companies turning out quality solid wood bodies.

Y'all have the story a little bit bass-ackwards. The buyer wants the chassis to put his Hercules body onto and will sell the Hack body.
