I am going to go get my car (finally!) next week. I am renting a U-Haul Car
Transporter (Thanks to Tom Long--I'm renting in Memphis and continuing on to
OK and then finishing up in Bowling Green, KY. Price was very reasonable!)
to pick up the car, but have one question. I will be using a "come along" to
pull the car up the ramps onto the transporter (the car doesn't run), but is
there a special place to put the hook so that I don't damage anything? Some
type of eye-bolt or the like? If not, where would those of you with
experience recommend? And while I'm driving, anything special to be careful
of as far and binding it down to the trailer? I have the come along and two
belt type fasteners (like those on appliance dollies) to hold the car onto
the trailer. I am assuming that there are other tie downs on the trailer (in
the wheel areas, etc).

BTW, the car is a TR250.

Thanks in advance for your advice. This is a great list.
