Flatbed would be the way to go. If they used the wheel dolly's then I would worry. Your probably fine, they dont want to pay for damages.

Bring a camera and check underneath thoroughly. How did they release trans? Any cable marks on bottom side of front bumper?

Im very worried about them damaging the car because with corvettes alot of extra precaution is needed to tow it

Check under side of exhaust Tips ,even on a flat bed the tips will drag on the ground if angle is to great.

Check under the Vette for damage and the rear underneath!

I have watched them "MOVE" vehicles with a fork lift with no regard for who's car or what kind of car it is

I do hope there is no damage though

Thanks,Matt

We are missing alot about the details of the towing. I'm not sure of every case but, I do know that if it was related to the vehicle being repoed then the towing company is not responsible for any damages done while moving the vehicle. I hope that was not the case.
