Default Good Reliable Auto transporter, Anyone???

I've been waiting 3 freaking wks for the auto transporter I hired to pickup my 71 vette that I bought in MD and bring it to Texas. The guy finally (18 yr old kid more like it) showed up with an overloaded truck and by the way he was acting and treating the other cars on the truck to prepare mine to be loaded, the seller would not let him take the car because it was not in my best interest. Anybody know a good transporter that I can call?

I used Enclosed Vehicle Transport to haul my 71 vette from Colorado to Kentucky two years ago. They only transport two vehicles at a time in an enclosed trailer. I had my car in two days. It costs a little more than an open trailer, but the risk of damage on an open trailer unloading and loading your car is much greater and the peace of mind is worth it. Their website is www.enclosedvehicletransport.com.

A company called Allied. They pickup and deliver cars nationwide. They also haul for the Auto Shows.
