If you're transporting large, rack-mounted equipment or pallet-loads

UPS truck. Be sure to carry a ramp.
You're not likely to find something like that for $750 that doesn't need
work, but what else is new? The hassles and time a vehicle like this
will save translate into dollars.

All this car
talk keeps reminding me I need to fix my truck so I can
haul old computers and stuff. 77' Dodge with a 318, worn cam bushings,
maybe bent camshaft. Timing jumps all over the place, even with new
distributor, chain, and gears. Bottom end is tight, and compression is
good, but I think I'll go through it completely anyway.
Good segue back on topic...
What's the least expensive, semi-reliable transportation for
hauling Classic Computers?
What I mean is, something that might be a tad flaky starting
up, but once running, is unlikely to suffer mechanical
failure in places where your license plates might as well be
from a foreign country?
Clearly, my Audi 80 sedan is useless except for the occasional
Apple //e or somesuch teeney weeney computers.
I used to have a 64 Chevy pickup, should still have it.
Is such transport possible for circa US$750.00?
