An old friend of mine in Toronto is considering a 1979 Camaro located in Melrose MA (i.e. appears to be 8-10mi north of Boston). I found the car on their local craigslist.
She's leery of buying the car sight unseen and the online car shipping quote she got was just shy of $2K, which is 1/3 of the car's asking price.
I'm willing to throw a few bucks someone's way to inspect the car and we're open to suggestions as to how to get the car shipped in a cost-effective way.
Any ideas/volunteers?
