Default Looking for transport recommendation

Considering purchase of a corvette in the Northeast. Can anyone recommend a carrier (enclosed)?
Thanks.

I used American Transport out of Las Vegas http://aceamericantransport.com/ and they did a fantastic job. I originally contracted with another company out of Florida that was far less than honest.

These guys told the truth, delivered on time, provided daily updates and their truck and trailer were like new. The driver Steve was really a character and he treated my car and the other Corvette C7 that he picked up as his own. Perfect job, great price and great equipment.

Be careful out there as some of the people that we talked to were really flaky. These guys are the real deal!

Just so you have choices, Intercity is a CF vendor and does give a small discount for CF members. Plus, like Thomas Sunday and Horseless Carriage, they are probably the two or three oldest in the biz. Never heard a complaint about them either.

They just transported my C7 from Illinois to Virginia. Pat keeps on top of everything and keeps you in the loop. Transported in covered three car van.

Hi,
Ironically, the car I'm looking at is in NH. Do you have a specific contact. Transport is to Tuscaloosa, AL.
Thank you.

They are a newer company, but seeing as how Mike Furman of Criswell Chev. uses them a LOT, and has had no complaints, they have to be in the mix, too.

I have used Plycar twice and their service was excellent. Last time was with Steve "Spider" and I would highly recommend him if you have the choice.

Passport transport was my company. They did a great job. Picked up when promised and dropped off when promised. they also have a tracker so you can see where the trailer is the entire way to you. Drivers were professional and courteous and worked around me.

I've used Mills Auto Transport, Dubuque, IA. for years now. Lowest price, fully-enclosed vans, best service, and a no-deductible insurance coverage for any damages incurred to vehicles during transit.
