I bought a M35A3 Duece and a half.  Its located in Mt. Holly NJ (near Ft. Dix).  Its not currently running and has a few flat tires.  I need it moved to my location in Bangor PA.  I have one bid so far to transport it and should have at least a couple more soon.  If anyone works for, owns or knows of a company that you would recommend to have move it (and would likely do it for a reasonable price) please let me know.  Either respond to the post with your/their info or contact me through the site.

I'll of course provide pics once I get her home.

Thanks

UPDATE:  Got her home on Friday.  It went pretty smoothly.  I'll get a picture up soon.

I can name 4 or 5 guys with Landolls but you're looking $125 an hour for a heavy towing company, or, call a freight broker like Landstar BRS in Bedford and they will put the job out to bid.

I'd try a specialty vehicle moving company like Horseless Carriage. We use to get all kinds of cars delivered to the shop for restoration. Most had flat tires and did not run. If it fits in a semi, they can move it. They are based in the northeast too.

My Dad use to talk about driving a deuce and a half when he was in the Army.  I could Google it but an as-is picture is much better.  It's cool to see someone interested in old military vehicles.   Looking forward to seeing it.

Did you stop at Kate & Al's pizza as you drove by Columbus Farmer's Market?
Glad you got your deuce.
Newer model at that.

No pizza on the way back.  Sorry.

Another small but important update: I got her started and drove her a little yesterday (just a few hundred feet in the driveway).  So far so good.
