Six years means the handbrake is seized on. The clutch may be seized on too so make sure it is in neutral before you start. I doubt if you will be successful heaving it about as the others have said. Most pick up trucks have a winch which should pull the car out if the truck can get in line with the car. You need to tell the pick up man what the task is so that he arrives with a powerful winch. Be careful where the tow cable is attached. Screw in eyes can rip out under too much strain. A strop around the front subframe is best, with you and others if possible pushing from the back. If you can reinflate the flat tyre it will help. Good luck.

hi
easy, the brakes have seized, you need to get up front and bump the car backwards, keep bumping it and pushing back it will eventually move.
by bump i mean push the front down, then push back at the same time.
this will move the car in about five minutes, but maybe longer.

with the trailer put some bricks behind the weels,get it close to the car, then tie a rope to the old car, then run it through the trailer and on t the new car, then slowly pull it on. or f you have a freind have him push it on with you.

you could push it on your self, but it will be hard work.
if you re alone ask some bloke walking by, most will want to be helpful.

once you get it out of the lock up you maybe able to work on the battery, pump up tyre, then drive it onto the triailer.

goodluck

Most modern car transporter trailers have winches on them (some electric), If you know anyone in the area thats into classic cars I’m sure they’ll know someone who has one,

Or you could tow it out with another car? If the handbrake has siezed on you may need to free it off by hitting around the drums (if it has them!) with a hammer.

hope this helps

If you can climb over the top f the car, you can set up a ‘bouncing movement’ and bounce the car forward enough to open the front door and release the hand brake. Then just pull it froward.

If not- jack up the front of the car with a wheeled jack., disconnect the handbrake cable, then pull the car forward the jack.. Prop the car while you’re underneath. You can move the car to a trailer with the flat tyre and battery providing you’ve a winch on the trailer..
