Fitting a atc70 in the car?

[Twilight]

I am going to pick up a atc70 in about an hour, only have my civic to fit it...so... how do i make it fit?

[harryredtrike]

put it on the roof,bring ratchet straps.put it in gear

[jadamek02]

I have done it before in a Pontiac 5G. It was a piece of trailprotrailprotrailprotrailpro rental car, so I didn't care about gas or oil. I took off the tires and shoved it in the back seat. This was a 2 door.

[jb2wheels]

I put mine in the back of my Civic all the time.

Of course, mine's a wagon so probably not the same. I think I could get two in nose to nose.

haha Harry are you serious?

I have fit a ez90 cub, cr80 and half a 200x in... lol I have a 2 door... hard to fit anything past the seats.

[jensenracing77]

i hauled my 350X on an 81 Pontiac Catalina. i had the front tire on the roof and the back tires on the trunk. i wish i had a picture of it. also wish i had a picture of the looks i got when i was going down the highway.

[Twilight]

I guess its going on the roof, or im taking it apart... wish me luck!

absolutely,it works great.get pics up soon.

[Twilight]

will do, leaving now, about a 1.5 hour trip.

Harry, my NSR was on display at the Seattle International Motorcycle Show today, haha my 250sx was in the back of the truck and one man said "You just own the GREAT oldies dont you?" made me laugh.

[Brockey]

I put my 70 in the trunk, stick the front tire out. Strap across to keep it in and tie the trunk down.

[harryredtrike]

thats awsome.use the straps around the trunk hinges and back axles and the front around the steering stem and down the front to the radiator suports

[Brockey]

Heres mine

And my boy is the one in the blue hat the other little guy just ditched his paddle bike and wanted to see the 70.

Remove the rear fender and rear wheels. Maybe loosening the handlebar will help also...

Well nevermind im halfway out there and I call, he says he sold it 5min after I called, I told his that he said he would hold it for me, and his response was "and you believed that?"


I really f****** hate people

[4cfed]

wtf?!?!? really? i hate people like that, if they know your coming why cant they wait another hour for money instead of selling it to someone else... that sucks man! when i picked up that par of 200e's the guy had 25 calls on them from ther time i left tell the time i got there, 2.5 hours one way, lucky the guy told everyopne he had someone coming, people tryed to get him to let them come get them befor ei got there he said nope, more people need to be like that, sorry about your luck man

[350Xccelerator]

Wow man, that is cold.

[85Tecate]

You should have continued to goto his house and preceeded to knock some sense into him.


That's some BS right there.....especially with that kind of attitude.

[harryredtrike]

S O B, thats crap dude,sorry.

[jensenracing77]

maybe we could have a group ride and just circle around his house for a couple hours. make a flat track out of his yard.

[Jim mac]

I agree it sucks. When I sell something and someone asks if I'll hold it, I always say if the thing is still here when your ready to come and get it, I'll sell it to you. That is unless the interested person calls and says they are on the way. Even then, I will give a strict time limit. If you say you'll be here in 1 hour, if your not here in 1.5 hours, its back up for sale, unless I get a call.
Just too many flakes call and asks you to hold something, then when they do show up, they try to low ball you. jim

[Twilight]

I called and left, it was a 1hr drive and I said i would be there in a hour, 20min into leaving is where I called to tell him where I was.

[Frankencelery]

That's a tough one. As an occasional seller of stuff, I've had tons of people say they were coming and then never show. It's hard to hold out for someone who might not show up, or worse, Like Jim Mac said, you wait for them and tell 2 or 3 other people that you're holding it and then the guy you were holding it for shows up and lowballs you. However, as the buyer, I admit I would be pissed too.

I think if I knew two people were coming at the same time, I would get their numbers and call the second person to let them know it had been sold, and hopefully save them most or all of the trip.

[kiser]

Whenever i sell something i always tell people that im not holding the item for them. Its first come first serve in my book. I have had people tell me they were on there way and never show up and that chaps my butt! But sorry bout the deal man. That sucks that the guy had attitude like that.

[aldochina]

that sucks! I know the feeling. Not much is put on honesty these days.

[cduemig]

I really hate that. Just remember that karma for 3 wheel riders can really get ya :) If you make a deal and someone is on their way, it's sold for the time being. If the other people really want it they can wait the hour to see if you show. There has to be some trust...

[Twilight]

cduemig, i used to be near you. lived in Mechanicsville.
