Default looking to have a car transported

Looking to have a Nova transported from Venice Florida to Le Claire Iowa. Anyone know of a reasonable carrier either open or closed trailer? Thanks. Dave

I've used many over the years and I'm to the point where I use the carriers I know best. That being said, Reliable is one of the sponsors of this site and they show up, are competitive on cost, use good equipment, and are professional. I used someone different for two cars last year because they were "cost effective". The first car showed up chained down and hauled nearly vertical. I can't believe it was not damaged with the hooks they used. The second car was strapped down, but the trailer and ramps were in horrible condition. They were ready for the junk yard. Try Reliable first.......

Thanks for the information. I will give them a shot. I didnt have a good experience with them when I used them to bring my Nickey Camaro back from the Russo-Steele auction awhile back. Car took 4-5 weeks to get here and was covered in dirty oil on the top/rear from the car above it. Oil was inside mouldings etc. I was concerned it would do something to the paint but it was OK. Was pissed to say the least. No offer to make things right either. I'll mention that and see if it helps. [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/smile.gif[/img] Dave
