    The BEST shipper not the Cheapest is (Pass Port Transport) formally Fed Ex Transport it will insure your van will get there Damage Free in one Piece I have used them and recommenced them to many people for many years......I think anyone that needs a Van or Car shipped should watch Shipping Wars on TV first to see how SOME of theses independent guys do Business ..Just ask Vanny who NOT to call.!!!. BE CARE FULL and do some back ground checking first.... As CLEAN and NICE as that Van is I would want to trailer it myself to assure no damage..

    That's crazy... I bought a 67 F100 a couple of years ago, bought it when the snowbirds were shipping it took 2 months. Way too long!Nice van you bought.

    Glad you got it together!
    I'm a Mopar guy, but those vintage Chevy vans really do it for me. Love the shape, style, the grille looking like a tube grille from the factory, the side markers, they just are great! Hope it's as good as it looks!

    I had a Mopar moved from Seattle to LA a few years back. A previous experience was a nightmare and research told me the business is full of flakes so I went with one that had great reviews, Reliable Carriers out of Chandler AZ. They were a bit pricy but worth every penny. From the time I placed the order it was picked up in three days and delivered 2 days later. Very professional. I even got several progress calls while it was on the road.  That's a fine looking ride you have there. Enjoy it and good luck on the move. Jerry

    Hey Space,

    Wish the directions were reversed, I'll be 'dead-headin' an empty trailer from Southern CA to Ohio next Summer with a trip though the Badlands. I would have hauled it for you.

    I inherited my Gramps '41 Plymouth and the wife and I are going to take a vacation to pick it up.

    Good luck!
