      Swap tires around and have your dad tow you in each of the non-runners. Only 15 minutes? You should be alright.

      I won't be working over there again until mid/late June. If you haven't got them home by then I will drive the pickup over.

        no the cars are 15 min away from my house (gotta drive 15 min to get there)... I gotta puckup but no transport trailer...

        one parts car doesn't have any seats as I could tell (probably not in car), no wheels/tires no engine (stock engine is sitting in back of car) and no steering wheel attached.... the other parts car has 2 wheels/tires engine is in but torn apart and I beleve the interior is intact

              It's past time that you learn to shift, just get in it and drive. Remember to push in the clutch when you want to shift or stop.

                swap tires and tow bar? seat and steering will not matter. My tow bar is a harbor freight and has a lot of miles on it from festy to festy. Festy to pickup is easy stuff.
