how is going to be towed from NY to Florida?, if you are using a pick-up truck, I would go to U-HAUL and rent a dolly. the car's fromt wheels sit on top of it and you tow it like a trailer. Look into it, it will be much easier than taking the axels out.

I agree with the Dolly, or you can use a car trailer, just drive it on and get a truck (if u have one or a friend who has one) to tow it and ur all set. or see if any tow truck drivers wanna take a vacation in flordia this early hehe

I agree ... they also have ones that the entire car is on the trailer.

i would just get a dolly bro, for 1) you said you would have to remove the axles, and 2) you would be putting hella milage on ur car, when you could just get a dolly and tow it with the front wheels off of the ground
