I have been looking at a Luv that is just over 1000 miles away from me. I have been looking at different shipping companies. Anyone use a company that they really liked? Thanks in advance.

Asking around is the best way to go. When I had my 72 brought down from northern CA 7 years ago a friend hooked me up with a driver who happened to be returning to SoCal from another delivery. He brought it down for $300 to my door. I called him for a friend a year later and he wanted $1500 to go to Colorado. So timing is everything, maybe you can find someone and get on a waiting list to pick up when they are close to the one you want hauled. It is a racket though and once you ask for a quote online you will get spammed with car haulers looking for a job.

Freight prices are fickle. Depending in the location, a price quote may be honored for only one day. Supply and demand can vary tremendously. The west coast is generally the most volitile region.

I was looking at buying it and had some shipping quotes $900-$1000. I was about ready to get it then a buddy of mine who is a lot closer bought another vehicle so I bought his Luv. Not near as nice but it has potential!!!!
