My 240 is stranded behind my apartment in a VCU lot . Does anyone have any recommendations of a tow company around here that would tow a slammed car? Need to have the car towed to my parents house in Midlo so I can pull the radiator. I'm guessing that most tow truck guys will laugh at me and drive off when they see the height of the car. Trying to raise or fix the car in the VCU lot is pretty much out of the question since the lot is constantly monitored. Here's what I'm dealing with:

I would check with Sams Towing. When I worked at Pence i had a customer that had a very low LGT that he was able to tow for us.

how close is the muffler / bumper cover to the ground in the back? with that front bumper cover off in the front that should be an easy tow with a rollback. if you need a lift PM me i can get it done.

Fletchers towing has a two piece bed truck specifically for lowered cars.
Its made for exotics (Vipers, lambo, etc)
Bed splits in two pieces to get front wheels on then bends back for rear.
