It's not better on top

[68pony]

For you guys out there that think having your car on top is better hmmmmm take a look at the photos below , the blue olds(mine) last in , took 5 mins to untie and roll out , i can tell you the corvette owner chewed his nails to the point of bleeding

Holy frijole! You'd want to have a lot of faith in the forklift driver, there's not an inch to spare.

Not real keen on the way the cars tied down.Just rope. Mine always come in chained and bolted down . Takes a bit longer to unload but a lot more secure. With the rocking and rolling of a ship rope tends to stretch and strain until possibly ???.OH OH!  Fork drivers seem to be more careful if they're being watched.

Stormin , it wasn't just tied down , it had blocks of wood around the tyres on both ends , looked like they were nailed down , what i can say the guy struggled to get them off , forkie also said they did a good job of packing cars , all i know, all 3 came out without a scratch, also the guys unpacking were great it did look like they cared but i wonder if that would have been the case if i wasn't there taking photos.

I'm a bad boy , how many of you out there bringing in cars seeing this, now the sleepless nights begin :+

All  that procedure is pretty standard, including the tie down..... you may find the most damage if any is the forks under the car but not often, but still i use a tilt tray and back it in and pull the car onto it......  =  zero damage and i now cover the cars on the bottom in that sharksin plastic the spraypainters use = no oil etc on the bottom car.....here is anther tip try not to place anything on your upholstery those containers reach absurd temps coming across and even a cardboard box can burn a mark into it....all this is has happened to me so you learn pretty quick.....cheers
