Default Looking for Auto Transport recommendations

I'm looking to transport a 69 Chevelle from Albuquerque to Northern Ohio. If anyone has any recommendations for a reliable auto transporter, I'd appreciate the information. Open carrier is sufficient for this haul.

Thanks.

Phil Woj.

Phil,

Be advised as the winter months approach (or so I am told) that even tho you may not be concerned with covering your car in transport because it needs to be restored, you should consider the block possibly freezing and possibly cracking.

Sam,

Thank you for the advice. I see you haven't forgotten about the climate north of PHX. I asked the seller to check the coolant to see if it has the proper protection.

I may even run out to check the car myself before it is shipped.

I had an elCamino shipped to me about 6 years ago, California to Ohio, during the month of November. It took two weeks and the trucker went through two major snow storms, I was a little restless to say the least. It made it just fine though.

I'll check with Blue Highways tomorrow.

Thank you for the responses.

Phil Woj.

Mike,

If it ran, it would definitely be road trip time. Yes, I would buy the gas and beer.
