I would recomend Intercity or Horseless Carriage. Don't use Dependable!

Horseless Carriage is all covered/enclosed transport. He;s looking for CHEAP. They are good but not cheap.

I am after an open carrier that is good.

The car has a bad repaint. Thus it will need painting so an open carrier should be fine.

Anyone have any recommendatations?

The companies that have responded to my request for quotes are:

A to Z Auto Transport
Mountainside Auto Transport
Wheels On Wheels Vehicle Transport
Insight Car-Go
Autotrail Transporters
Trusted Auto Movers
Able Auto Transport
Specialty Mobile Systems
A-AAA Auto Transport Inc.
Trusty Transport
Allen Auto Transport

Thx,
David

Has one here used wheelsonwheels.net?

The a few weeks ago when I was going to get a black 914 they had quoted me 925 from CA to GA.

This time their quote is $625.

Good? Bad?

Thx,

Pick the lowest cost, insure it up the wazoo and go from there.....the price quotes are the cheapest I've seen in a long while....low gas prices and the weather....go figure...

A1 says get the lowest quote and then submit it to them, then they will beat it by $25. One time per customer and no SUVs... It's on their website.

Man, I can't believe those prices, it's actually cheaper than driving.

Unreal.. I wish I had cash on hand to dump on Jeff's Bubble Beeh.
