NEED HELP truck measurements

I am driving from Ontario Canada to Oklahoma roughly a 18 hour drive to grab a 64 c-10. I've taken measurement of my current 66 c-10 and it fits in my car hauler but if a few people could help me confirm my measurements that would be greatly appreciated!!!

Trailer Measurements Are:

Height of door 6' 2"
Width of door 7' 7"
Space in between trailer tires 6' 10"
Length 22' (useable length)


Thanks your help is much needed and appreciated!

Please give me a hand so i dont drive 18 hours for nothing!!!!

#1 it will fit, the tires raise the body above the wheel wells, I am sure if it is a car hauler it will be wide enough. You will have to remove the mirrors, and leave the window down to climb out (which would be my problem) worst case you might have to let air out of the tires to get it in the rear door but I do not see a problem. Where are you going to pick the truck up in Oklahoma, if it is around Tulsa, OK and you need anything give me a call, would be more than glad to help. Kieth office 918-446-2245 What is it that you are picking up ?

Re: NEED HELP truck measurements

With the price of gas/food/lodging, why not have it shipped up to the border? Getting my 65 C10 LWB from Arkansas to upstate NY was only 800. Don't forget that you need to submit the original title to the US Customs side where you are going to cross three days before you go through.

Re: NEED HELP truck measurements

We were going to ship it but decided to take a road trip instead. (father son bonding trip) Its also a good excuse to get out of the snow and into some nice weather! But yeah I've imported many many cars over the border but thanks for the heads up!

Re: NEED HELP truck measurements

Great idea to make it into a road trip, but here in central Kansas we've had some snow last night. Should be gone by the time you head south, but this time of the year you never know what will happen.
