Transport Companies
 

I just got a new project car that needs to brought over to CA... Anybody recommend a good transport company to pick up a car with all the extra parts??? Car is in Illinois..

Cris,
I used freight center (sister company to yellow freight here in WI/IL.) Shipped enclosed transport complete body only for 846.00 strapped to a makeshift pallet.
There great cost wise but I would have your client get a small shipping policy. My car arrived with minor damage, cant remember but I think it was one of the rear quarters (I think we cut that section out LOL )
Have you had alot of out of state customers? Whats your approach as far as keeping them up to date. I think Prodigy tops the books in referencing to out of state customers. Good luck.

Thanks Dave! I will take a look @ them.. I just talked to another customer that has his 69 Camaro in Indianapolis... So we will have 2 69's coming over to CA.. One customer lives in LA & the other is from BC Canada..

I have three out of state cars here @ the shop.. Weekly status, proper documentation, don't cut the rear of your car without approval (LOL), lots of pics with e-mails, & answer the phone when the customer is calling you!

Wouldnt mind checking out your shop when Im down there.
Btw, my "sliced and diced" car was approved by Ronco as seen on TV

Your welcome to stop on by anytime your in town Dave!

I got my Nova shipped out pretty darn cheap, because there was a shipper out here anyway, dropping off a car, and was heading back empty.

Give it a try.

Stealing our Canadian clientelle!!!! They are in good hands! Make sure you hook up with a broker for the Canadian in-bound car...... there is some paperwork that has to be done and I find it has been easier to pay the broker than try and decipher what paperwork is needed!

I would give this guy Jeff a call... I had a car shipped from New Mexico to Oklahoma for 450 total, and the car didnt run.. He is based out of Dallas, but he gets it handled. I had the car at my door in a week from the time I placed the order...

Detrailers

Jeff, handles calls or call backs at all hours 1(877) 777-0077

I used Thomas Sunday and had a great experiance! Concours Transport is another very trusted transporter that a few members here use! I would completely trust either!

I recently used Autobahn Transport. They are based in Illinois.
I was very happy with the service and the price. They do nationwide open and enclosed transport. 888-458-9052.

I have used these guys and plan to again... http://www.agapetransport.com/

Actually I found a silver rear wheel drive '09 TrailBlazer SS in Texas with low miles to replace our '06 and didn't have the time to go retrieve it myself. Autobahn had the best price and it came in an enclosed two car hauler. The driver kept in contact with me during the trip and did a great job.

Thanks for the info.. Looks like we will be using Autobahn.. Just got another car we need to pick up in Tennessee..

Three cars coming my way.. We are going to bee a little busy around here..
