12-070212 Arrival

Christmas in July. Stewart Transport did a fantastic job getting the '33 into my neighborhood and to the house. This was a BIG truck so I'm glad I live in a quasi-cul-de-sac. If I had been on a regular street I don't know how this would have worked. We weren't able to get the truck with the crane so I needed to have some guys come over to help with the unload. We had 5 total including the driver and I think one more would have been better. To keep the lower trunk clear of the truck bed the driver suggested we put a 7' 2x4 across the frame under the rear wheel wells. This worked well (though I had one corner by myself!). We were able to quickly bring her in and set up on jack stands. The whole process from truck arriving to driving off was only about 1 1/2 hours. Not bad!
