Shame? yeah, but I'll ask anyways

Post by Andy Man »

Hi to you all. My feet have barely hit the ground here and I am asking for help... :bow:

I have happily bought a 1969 F250 :woohoo: that has spent the last 28 years gathering dust in a barn. That barn is over a 100 miles away and, I'm thinking better not to put that truck on such a long road just yet. I have no car trailer, nor do I know anyone who does. I am in the Poconos in Pennsylvania. Can anyone here assist me in getting that truck home? :yes:
