Anybody have any suggestions for a coast to coast, (CA-PA) transport. Car is rough, and cost a major factor, so I believe an open carrier fits my needs. I have used an on-line tool and it appears that $1,100-$1,200 will get it done. Is this reasonable, or trying to scam me?

Thanks,

Ray,

Perhaps as low as $800. I caution you to make sure everything is secured. When I was transporting my 1942 Super 8 180 from South Carolina to Colorado, the hood was lost (and never recovered) somewhere in Oklahoma.

The price I have paid from a nationally franchised carrier (InterCity) for a covered transporter was about $1 per mile. I would think that the price for an open carrier would be much less. Remember too, fuel is much less expensive now than it was just a couple of months ago. Fuel is a major cost factor for these carriers.

Also you can check out uship.com and have people bid on your shipment.

And then I can even see it on TV on the way to my house....., of course it actually making the trip is important to me
