Help towing?

[mtrx804]

So i have a post about an engine needed (1.6) but i wanted to know if anyone could possibly help tow my car about 5 miles if that far...its off 35 in Lewisville right past exit 447 and i need to get ti to exit 450 (yea kinda sucks it wouldn't make it another 4 miles)... I dont wanna pay a towing company 80 bucks just to take it 5 miles, so i mean ill pay someone a little bit to help.

I'm not in your area, so I can't provide any power. But you might want to check your auto insurance policy for towing or, if you belong to an Auto club (AAA, Allstate, etc). touch base with one of them. It should be covered, if you're a member.

are you wanting to do this with a tow strap or do it the right way?

Do you have a truck or SUV with a tow hitch?? If so just go down to Uhaul do a one day rent on a car dolly and do it that way.

I won't be available until about 9PM tonight. But if you still need help then drop me a PM with a phone number. I have a tow strap and can pull you home. Do you still have the tow points in the front? If not it will make it a pain to hook a tow strap onto you.

I have a tow bar that bolts to the original two front tow hooks...........send me a PM if you need my help.

is your miata the one sitting by the 3040 exit off 35?

Yea that was the one it got towed by the city and it only sat there like maybe a day tops thanks tho for all the support yall, Im still not sure what i want to do with it yet.

[goofygrin]

well the impound fees are likely going to end up being quite high if you let it sit there too long... more than the value of the car potentially, so don't think too long!

[mtrx804]

Yea ill probably just leave it cause of the accident then the motor blowing idk if itd be worth fixing anymore sadly i have been looking around for another one tho

[goofygrin]

find out how much the impound fee is... if it's a couple hundred, just transfer the title to someone... if it just needs an engine, sounds like a cheap lemons build or track car, right?

[mtrx804]

Possibly but with how my lucks been this past could months im sure itll be an ordeal with that too lol I was gonna call them and find out how much itd be today

[goofygrin]

well if it's a couple hundred... and you're just transferring the title, I'll find a truck
