Car movement

[nw-mailing-list at nwhs.org]

Not knowing the specific location and its methods, but cars are often 
drifted downgrade to a spot, moved with a car mover by hand ( a long 
pry bar essentially) or moved with a dozer, tractor, heavy duty truck. 
Light cars with roller bearings are not that tough to move, generally 
speaking, your actual mileage may vary.
