BenD (Ben Dozier) on the HAMB is a good source and reasonably priced. He hauled a car for me from W. Virginia to the Kansas City area. He lives near Joplin. If interested PM me and I'll forward his phone number.

I used a shipper recommended by Frank Cowan. This was a few years ago. I was very pleased with his price. He got my truck to me in S.W FL from Minnesota in less then 2 days. His name is Larry De Long and he is located in Cocoa, FL I have his number and you can PM me for it.

I got my '60 from the Atlanta Area up to CT by using Uship.com. I guess it's some how operated by ebay. You place up a shipment that you want to make and shippers ask questions and bid on it. It can get a bit confusing, but they all have feedback, just like ebay. I was getting some lower bids than what I went with but I just couldn't have it ready in time on the other end. A lot of shippers are just sitting and waiting for one more vehicle to throw on their truck and you can get good deals from them. If I ever ship again, I'll do uship without thinking twice.

Well it looks like my parts truck will be heading south this evening.

Ben DeLozier was able to make it happen and the price was right--great guy to deal with. Thank you to everyone who responded here for helping me out.

Transporting Vehicles nationwide

I have used D & K Transport out of Dallas, Texas to haul 2 of my cars. They go nationwide and are pretty decent on pricing. They contract and who ever takes the bid does the job. Was very satisfied with my 2 hauled cars from San Diego to El Paso, Texas. Ask for Kelly at 1-866-227-6683. Ask for a quote, doesn't cost anything.<TABLE style="WIDTH: 131pt; BORDER-COLLAPSE: collapse" cellSpacing=0 cellPadding=0 width=174 border=0 x:str><COLGROUP><COL style="WIDTH: 131pt; mso-width-source: userset; mso-width-alt: 6363" width=174><TBODY><TR style="HEIGHT: 12.75pt" height=17><TD class=xl24 style="BORDER-RIGHT: #ece9d8; BORDER-TOP: #ece9d8; BORDER-LEFT: #ece9d8; WIDTH: 131pt; BORDER-BOTTOM: #ece9d8; HEIGHT: 12.75pt; BACKGROUND-COLOR: transparent" width=174 height=17></TD></TR></TBODY></TABLE>
