Chris I had a place written down that was discussed on Chevelles.com Perhaps go over there and do a search. I will try to look, but there was definately 1 place that everyone recomended.

Ya Ya, stay away from DAS, guy on TurboBuick.com had a big time problem with them.

Make sure the seller faxes you copy of the condition report after the car leaves, compare it with the copy you get when you recieve the car. Don't take delivery at night.

i looked into it when i got my camaro from Texas, but all quotes were above $600. If you don't mind spending the money, go ahead... I just hopped a bus down there and picked it up myself. I only work part time, so if you are on a budget, i'd be happy to do that for you for less than the cost of shipping it. Unless the car doesn't run... but if that's the case, then the shippers charge you more.

He does it on the side, thats why his prices will probably be as low as you will find. Hes done it quite a few times for various people. So no fancy enclosed trailor if thats what you are looking for, but he won't mess up the car or anything either ;).

He is located in southern MI too, if that makes a difference.

Reliable transporting has done all of our major pick ups. They are picking up the Yenko in a week to go to NC because it is now sold.

Ill be damned if i can find the website though!!! Im not at home to get a phone #, but they use orange and black rigs that look almost like allied van lines trucks.
