Your insurance might, or AAA will, tow it to St. Augustine (169 mi).

Subject: trouble finding help

For one reason or another, I cannot find someone to fix my '83 Westy here in
Lakeland, FL.  One man would but works only on vans with carburetors, not
fuel injection.  Someone else said he would but will not call me back.  I
have a place in Plant City calling around for rebuilt or used engines in
good repair.  So I went to Fisher Buggies in So. Tampa; they will fix it,
but it means having it towed there, and they have a reputation for being
expensive.  Any recommendations about them and/or what I should do since I
have no mechanical skills myself nor a place to work on it.  Many thanks!

Best,

Bob
