Re: Need Auto Transport Leads
Do you really want to ship something on an open hauler? I used Intercity Lines to get my JL8 from CA to NJ for $1000 in an enclosed trailer.

Re: Need Auto Transport Leads
Twice I have hooked up with carriers who were not full and gave me reduced rates, rather than travel coast to coast half full. And in covered units. The "family-owned" operations are more apt to give you a break. If you call them, tell them you will be standing by with your car should they find themselves in that situation.

Re: Need Auto Transport Leads
Thanks for the replys so far hope there will be more with other specific names. I never considered a enclosed carrier as I assumed the price would be too high, but as I have adequate time I can wait and see......The car is a survivor original 1970 L-78 Camaro but quite frankly its in need of restoration.
Does NOT need 1/4 panels but the small dog leg sections are rusted and will need replacing from a donor body.....Five years ago the front fenders and lower valance were replaced with NOS....I got the RARE aircleaner and all the correct dated engine components EXCEPT the smog......Car is Classic Copper.......I will post pictures when I get some film developed as I didnt use the digital camera this time......Later, Chuck/"Rainy Seattle"

Re: Need Auto Transport Leads
When I was looking for a transporter, I found that Exotic Car Transport (1-800-766-8797) was the most inexpensive for my trip, which never happened. They have enclosed trailers.

Re: Need Auto Transport Leads
Chuck, just had Reliable ship my GTO from OH to SC. Asked for and received the quote as open thinking that I seldom see Reliable transport anything open. Sure enough it went enclosed at open rates. I called most shippers advertising in Hemmings and they were all within $50 to $100 of each other.
