need help moving old truck from NSL to Grantsville

[Houndoc]

My parents are in the process of moving from North Salt Lake to Stansbury Park.

As a first step in the process, we need to move a 1948 Chevy pickup to my place in Grantsville on a temp basis (better yet, he would prefer to sell the truck.)

Currently not running and parked on step driveway. Sits low to the ground, as was restored as a street rod back in early 1980s.

Anyone able to either loan us a trailer to haul the truck or willing for gas money to help him haul it (that would be great, as not sure when I will be available to tow it :-\) ?

when are you looking at moving it? how low is it?

Sooner the better- sometime in the next week? Not a "lowrider", sits with front bumper 6" or so off ground? I can have Dad measure it if need be.

this week is kinda busy for me. I should be able to swing next week after monday. I don't need dimensions of the truck, just wondering if it would need some boards to help out with the ramps. would it be pretty light for pushing onto trailer? I don't have a winch on mine yet

Gravity is certainly in our favor getting it onto the trailer. Getting it off should not be much trouble.

Here are some pics for reference (he measured bumper, a lot higher than I thought at about 11")

Thanks for those willing to help, truck ended up being sold to neighbor across the street.
