[Spridgets] Transport for an MG Midget

[tncarnut1]

Nice looking car, Alex. I've never paid anybody to transport a car for me, but have pulled Spridgets and other toys behind my own truk many times. I won't be able to help you out with the move, but do have a piece of advice in case you find someone to tow it for you. If you rent a trailer from U-Haul, you must not tell them that you're going to put a Spridget on it. They will tell you it doesn't fit and will not rent to you as a result. Instead, tell them it is another small car (I said it was a Miata). Spridget is tight because of the open area between the tire trails, but it does fit. Good luck!

Hi from Australia,

I am the president of the Sprite Car Club of Queensland, and have bought a Nissan engined Midget in Portland for road use over here. Can anyone suggest the best way of transporting this MG Midget from Oregon down to LA please? We are finding it difficult to find a trans shipper willing to transport the car at a realistic price. Also, local Spridget enthusiasts over there will have a better idea of the reputation and skills of the US truck companies. A few years ago, I came over and drove an MG along that route myself whilst we were on holidays in the States. Does any group member feel inclined to drive or tow this Midget to LA for a fee?
