Showcase

Group B rally cars on both decks of an enclosed transporter

Group B

Two historic rally cars moved together to the same exhibition.

Orange Lamborghini Huracán coming down a transporter's ramps

Huracán

Wing, diffuser, ground clearance: the ramp angle is set before it descends.

Matte black Ferrari Purosangue inside the enclosed transporter, side doors open

Matte black, no marks

Matte paint shows every fingerprint, so nobody touches the panels.

Rear wing of a black Porsche 911 Turbo on the lower deck of a transporter

The tail decides

The wing sets the height, not the roof. It is measured before the deck above is dropped.

Polished-lip alloy wheel of a black Porsche 911 Turbo on a perforated deck

Polished lips

A kerbed rim on a car like this is not a repair, it is a refinish. The straps never touch it.

Front three-quarter of a black Porsche 911 Turbo with red interior inside a transporter

Black on red

Air-cooled, wide arches, and paint that shows a fingerprint. Gloves stay on.

Matte black Lamborghini unloaded at an event

Matte paint

Matte paint cannot be polished out, so it does not get touched.

Multi-deck car transporter on a country track

Farm track

The last stretch is not always tarmac. It gets done anyway.

Two enclosed transporters parked side by side on a cobbled mountain forecourt

Two trucks, one address

A collection does not move one car at a time when the address is this far.

Liveried Porsche 911 GT3 Cup race cars on the decks of an enclosed transporter, rear open

Cup cars aboard

Loaded on both decks for the same meeting, the rear still open.

Rear of an early white Porsche 911 on the deck, crew member working at the front

An early 911

Narrow body, thin bumpers, chrome script. Sixty years on, it is still driven aboard.

Yellow Porsche 911 Carrera RS in a street, transporter loaded behind it

Ducktail

A ducktail and a lightweight shell. It came off the truck and it goes straight back on.

Yellow Porsche 911 RS nose alongside a white one with a green stripe on the deck

Two RS, one deck

Same model, two liveries, one owner. They are loaded in the order they will be shown.

Orange roadster on the upper deck of an enclosed transporter

Roadster up top

A convertible travels with its roof up, or not at all.

Peugeot 205 Turbo 16 in race livery loaded into an enclosed transporter

205 Turbo 16

A Group B works car loaded for a public exhibition.

Cream prewar roadster on the lower deck, modern coupé on the upper deck

Ninety years apart

One deck for a prewar roadster, one for a modern coupé, on the same run.

Yellow Porsche 911 RS on the lower deck and a white 911 on the upper deck

One above the other

Two decks means two cars in the space of one, and neither of them touches the other.

Flank of a yellow Porsche 911 with a race-liveried 911 further up the deck

Down the deck

Four cars nose to tail. Each one has to come out without the others moving.

Tail of a white race-liveried Porsche 911 beside a yellow RS on the deck

Race numbers aboard

Sponsor decals date a car precisely. They are also the first thing a strap would lift.

Porsche 918 Spyder on the ramps of an enclosed transporter

918 Spyder

A hybrid hypercar comes down on electric drive, in silence.

Grey Mercedes-AMG GT at the foot of the transporter ramps, tailgate open

At the foot of the ramps

The ramps are set before the car moves, not while it is already rolling.

Porsche GT3 RS on the upper deck and red Ferrari 296 on the lower

Both decks loaded

GT3 RS above, 296 below: loading order follows delivery order.

White race Porsche 911 with a large rear wing on the transporter ramp

Wing and slicks

A car built for a circuit has no ground clearance to spare and no patience for a steep ramp.

Wide rear wheel and arch of a yellow Porsche 911 on a perforated deck

Where the strap goes

Around the tyre, over the tread, back to the deck. The bodywork is never part of the loop.
