Check the hauling schedule folks over on the left side of this page, under "community". But if it was in running condition, I think it would be fun to just drive it home. Looks like it's going to be about 400 miles, a nice one day trip. I drove my '50 Ford F-6 home when I bought it.

If it isn't running, good luck with it. Old trucks are as much fun as old tractors. What model? Mine's an F-6, vacuum assisted brakes, vacuum 2-spd rear axle, no PTO, and a transplanted 292 V-8 to replace the flathead V-8 it came with.
