Auto shipping recommendations.
I just bought an 80 on E Bay and need it shipped. Any recommendations
And yes I do have a budget, and I am not going to fly and then drive the car home. First off I don't know the car and second off it would probably cost more.

If the cars in the south - warm climate - and you are anxious to get it ASAP, this is the worse time of year to ship a car, as snowbirds are sending their cars back to the north. I hired Thomas Sunday to bring my car from GA to NJ, they quoted me 3-days and it took 6 weeks. Depending on distance, there is a carrier near Trenton NJ and he has single car enclosed trailers instead of the Multi-car carriers.

Thats how it goes for me, a dollar short or a day late. Nothing goes easy.

Just shipped my 73 from upstate NY to lower Delaware using Passport Transport(FedEx). With 10% off because I have Hagerty insurance, it was the cheapest carrier. Great service using an enclosed carrier. No damage. Very professional. Would use them again.

I'd Check this site out. http://www.vehicleshippingrates.com/...shipping-info/. They helped me to get a pretty good rate from a dependable shipping company on my move to Cali. They seemed way more responsive than any of the other companies i got quotes from.
