Hell hath no fury like a woman whose new BMW is delivered with over 10K damage to the front end. And the driver called me(!) to come outside to deliver the news. Moral, if there is one, is stuff happens, whether the lowball company with sketchy insurance, or the big company that handles million dollar cars that expects you to have your new BMW repaired at the cheapest body shop...so what the heck, fill the tank and head east.
Hope for the best, plan for the worst. In your case, ship enclosed, top deck only. Chances are on a coast to coast run it will be transferred to another truck...so be sure CLEAR starting and driving instructions are affixed to the central dash. Go with the company that has a big insurance policy, in addition to discussing the transit with your insurer.
Unless you have a burning need to drive 3000 plus miles in an 80 year old car, leave the romance to novels.
