    Overall length is 153 inches and from center wheel to center wheel it is 103 inches.

    Good luck
     
  2. I picked up a '47 convertible not long ago with a Uhaul.

    Told 'em it was a 86 Ranger pickup. Much less hassle that way.

  4. Hell, a model A frame is so short I was able to haul one in the back of a Chevy Suburban, after I took the front bumper off it, and if it had the rear bumper and bracket off it, I could have closed the back doors tight. As it was they were only open enough to leave a small gap between, 3 or 4 inches.

    Now if it has the wheels/axles on, that's another story... I had a front axle along, but it was set in on top of the frame.

    Bumper to Bumper they are only over 12 feet long you can almost put this on some utility trailers . I can place the frame in front of the body turned sideways in my 25 foot long with 24 inch shelves in the back .

    Yup, ran into this when I tried to haul a '57 Chevy and a '56 Chevy. One was being hauled with a Dodge Dakota, the other was being hauled with one of their big trucks. No dice was the answer. After talking with the guy, I finally said "So what if I said it was..." I don't remember what I said it was, but it was something fairly modern for the time. I think it was a Ford Probe or something. "That's in our system." Then that's what I'm hauling. Sometimes, people just MAKE you lie to them!

    I rented their open flatbead ramp trailer for my 34 rolling chassis,it fit perfect. No questions about what I was picking up and cost me $39 with insurance for the day.
