    I got a website from a post here not to long ago. It was a service that put for transportation needs up for auction.
    I cannot seem to find it now. Does anyone have it?
    Thank you..

    Donn, theres a guy in Mass, real car, truck guy has an old Autocar form the 50s and an enclosed trailer, beautifull setup hes allways runnin cars n trucks and parts from out west to up here. have to find his phone #. Be carefull some carriers are a bit shoddy., I sold a 65 Buick Rivera GS to a guy in Germany, the car was mint and ran like a top. When it arived at port in its new home the water pump was pissing antifreeze every where, and had a hell of a time starting the car, someone screwed with the dual carb set-up. Im thinking it was the kid that picked up my car, he apeared to be a know it all with a cardboard toolbox.

The best was his Idea for unloading "let iit roll till it stops"???

    Found his card, Motor Age Transport Brett Leonard owner operator home phone 1 508 693 1277 cell 1 774 563 8419 this guys setup is top notch liftgate, winch,inside lighting. enclosed trailer. I talked with him bout two years ago thinking ill import my scout from southern Az to Ct. was around 1400$ thats when the cost of fuel was stupid. he also told me its cheaper by the truck load. If i were ever to ship anything across the states again this is the guy to call. I know the vans wont show up in your door yard looking like the picture above.

    You get what you pay for, there was a thread here a while back, someones early chevy on a car carrier, drivers window rolled 3/4 down and you could see the weather was rain! Mad I know id be pissed if I were the buyer. Talk to the seller have him video or take pictures of the loading prosess, that way anything comes up damaged missing you basicly know who to wave the blame at. If I ever sold anything that had to get shipped this way again id do it just to cover my own @ss. Dont care if its a $200 clunker or a $15000 Buick GS
