Do you have any recommendations (good or bad) for cross country auto transport.
While over Thanksgiving holiday at my in-laws I picked up a '73 914. It runs but it needs too much work to drive it from Philadelphia to Orlando. I've never shipped a car before and what I've gathered is that these brokers (middlemen) hire the truckers, you pay a fee to the broker (deposit), and then hope the trucker is reputable. When the car arrives you then pay the trucker (in cash) yet the broker has no responsibility or liability. Any issues with the transport of the car have to be delt directly with the trucker. What could possibly go wrong? I'm a newbie. This is my first 914 and I'm looking forward to getting it. That said, any advice on where to start with making it road worthy? |

I used InnerCity Lines. Covered transporter. Used by folks like Canepa. Not the least expensive but I wanted to lower the risk as much as possible. Couldn't be happier with the result. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/aktion035.gif)
