Now how the heck did that happen?, it looks like the truck smashed through the garage door and some how was already slightly airborn to sandwich the door between them and some how not damage the backend of the ferrari???

I drive past one of the terminals or lots in Pineville, NC that DAS uses to transfer cars. It appears to belong to a local towing company. Many mornings and evenings I drive past and see the classics... chevelles, mustangs, camaros, old cadillacs, mopars, etc. just sitting there in the rain with the routing tags hanging from the rear view mirrors. Recently they extended the fence height and added some electric barbed wire to keep out the bad guys...

I had Rich Lacy of Rich's Classic Transport (http://www.richsclassictransport.com/home.html) deliver a 69 Chevelle from MN to NC earlier this year. It took a little time to schedule since he is a small operation (and I was in Germany) but the car goes into the trailer when picked up and comes out when it gets to its destination.

Subsequently, Rich's service did cost about $100 more than DAS but the car was clean and blemish free when it arrived. Rich was very personable, called frequently and worked with me to make sure I was 100% satisfied before I paid.

Good luck Kim and if I see your car in Pineville, NC I'll snap a few pics and email them to you!

I tracked it yesterday. It went from Newton,Kansas on I-135 to I-70 east to Topeka, Kansas then to Lawson, Mo. Then on I-35 north to Maysville Mo. This Was around 3:00 PM. About 60 miles south of the Iowa line. Next it shows it at Boonville, Mo.Which is on I-70 heading east . This is about 80 miles south and 40 miles east of Maysville!! I call these people about every day. Can't get a straight answer yet. What BS
