I’m moving to Atlanta and looking into shipping my car down. What have people used? Companies to stay away from? Distance/price/service? Spanks ---

$500ish gets it there, safe and sound and I fly back. 300 for a plane ticket, 200 for gas/food. Price Varies on cost of plane ticket. ---

You’ll insure his car, too? ---

I have full insurance that covers me and any car I drive. If the car is registered and has liability, the rest is set. ---

[/quote] Part of the reason I’m looking to ship it is that I’m in the middle of rebuilding the engine and need to break it in before a long drive like that. Don’t think I’d hand $500 and the keys to my car to a 19 year old kid from an online forum either, thanks though :meh2:
