Default Help getting car up north

Even though I'm a vette man my nephew saved his money and bought his first car. This mopar is sitting down in South Carolina and the seller was bringing it up in about 3 weeks. Now we are at 6 weeks so I'm trying to help my nephew get it up here. Close to Ct. or N.Y. would be fine. Any good companies or anyone else shipping north?
Thanks

These folks just shipped my car about 1100 miles for $800. I was very pleased with the rate. Call MIMI at M&A Transport 800-976-9970. She is a broker so it may take a few days for someone to pick up the car. Tell her Kevin in Lafayette said to call that way I score points too!

Gave them a call and told them you highly recommended them. Thanks very much. I'll keep you updated.

I can just see it now, smokey & the bandit all over again. By the time you get the car to the kid the engine just falls out of the car in his driveway.
