24/7 EMERGENCY TOWING & ROADSIDE ASSISTANCE — CALL (647) 244-1129

Classic Cars Need a Different Level of Care

Older and collectible vehicles often need more attention than an everyday car.

Low ground clearance, custom bodywork, older suspension, delicate trim, and valuable finishes can all affect how the vehicle should be loaded and secured.

That is why we take time to understand the vehicle before moving it.

Tell us about:

  • Low ground clearance
  • Custom wheels
  • Modified suspension
  • Loose or delicate body parts
  • Mechanical problems
  • Steering or braking issues
  • Recent restoration work

The more we know before arriving, the better we can prepare.

Flatbed Towing for Classic & Vintage Vehicles

For many collector vehicles, flatbed towing is an excellent transportation option because all four wheels remain off the road during transport.

The vehicle is carefully loaded onto the platform, positioned, and secured before being moved.

Flatbed transport can be useful for:

  • Restored vehicles
  • Low-clearance cars
  • Non-running classics
  • Performance vehicles
  • Vehicles with older drivetrains
  • Cars travelling longer distances

Towing for Car Shows, Auctions & Exhibits

Not every classic car tow is an emergency.

Many owners simply want their vehicle moved without adding unnecessary mileage or road exposure.

Norman Towing can assist with scheduled transport for:

  • Car shows
  • Auto auctions
  • Exhibitions
  • Museums
  • Dealerships
  • Restoration shops
  • Private collections
  • Photo shoots
  • Special events

Classic Car Transport for Restoration Shops

Restoration projects often require vehicles to move between specialists.

A vehicle may need transportation to:

  • Body shops
  • Paint shops
  • Engine builders
  • Upholstery specialists
  • Mechanical shops
  • Storage facilities
  • Detailing shops

Many restoration vehicles are not fully operational, so tell us whether the vehicle can start, steer, and roll.

Non-Running Classic Car Towing

A classic car does not need to run to be transported.

We can assist with vehicles that have:

  • Dead batteries
  • Engine problems
  • Transmission problems
  • Flat tires
  • Brake issues
  • Missing mechanical components
  • Long-term storage
  • Ongoing restoration work

Tell us the condition of the vehicle before pickup so we can determine the appropriate loading method.

Long-Distance Classic Car Transport

Sometimes the right vehicle is far from home.

Norman Towing can assist with certain longer-distance classic car transportation requests across Ontario.

This may include:

  • Vehicle purchases
  • Auction pickups
  • Restoration shop transfers
  • Show transportation
  • Storage moves
  • Collector vehicle relocation

Call us with the pickup location, destination, and vehicle details so we can confirm availability.

What Should You Tell Us Before the Tow?

Classic vehicles can have details that are not obvious from the outside.

Before the truck arrives, let us know:

  • Year, make, and model
  • Whether the vehicle runs
  • Whether it can steer
  • Whether the brakes work
  • Ground clearance
  • Any modifications
  • Any loose body parts
  • Pickup location
  • Destination
  • Indoor or underground access

Photos can also be helpful when the vehicle is very low, unusual, or partially restored.

Classic Car Towing From Underground Parking

Collector vehicles are sometimes stored in condominiums or private garages.

Underground parking can create additional challenges because of:

  • Low ceiling clearance
  • Tight turns
  • Narrow ramps
  • Limited truck access
  • Vehicles that cannot move

Tell us the garage clearance and where the vehicle is located before booking.

This helps us determine the right way to remove and transport the vehicle.

Emergency Towing for Classic Cars

Classic vehicles can break down just like any other car.

If your vehicle stops running while you are driving, Norman Towing can help arrange transportation to your preferred mechanic, storage location, or home.

Common problems may include:

  • Overheating
  • Electrical issues
  • Fuel problems
  • Flat tires
  • Mechanical failures
  • Accident damage

If the vehicle has been involved in a collision, tell us about any visible damage before the truck arrives.
