A container for transporting automobiles includes a plurality of vertically spaced decks, each having a pair of longitudinally extending vehicle ramps which define a transverse space in between. A continuous lashing dolly track extends longitudinally between one of an uppermost and intermediate pair of the vehicle ramps, and a lashing dolly is translatably suspended from the continuous lashing dolly track beneath the transverse space. A frame supports the decks and the continuous lashing dolly track. A weatherproof fabric cover may also be suspended between at least one pair of vertical members and a pair of longitudinal members of the frame to protect the automobiles from debris and small objects while providing a surface which will not harm a door upon contact.
