so i think i finally found a shell thanks to easternpiro, in north carolina.

its about 400 miles away, which i wouldnt mind towing it but i dont have a truck. i have a dolley but no tow vehicle haha.

anyways, i was considering shipping it, people have gotten quotes of like 800 bucks to ship cross country, so i figure 400 miles shouldnt be all that much.

have any of you ever done vehicle shipping? do you reccomend any sites?

i know that, but i figured if someone had a particularly good experience with one company, or knew one with cheap rates, id be set.

i think im just going to tow the vehicle anyway, i just HAVE to find a friggin truck.

most shipping companies want ridiculous amounts for non running vehicles.

Could your dad or someone help you out? That's what I would do...I can rent a truck since I'm old enough to, but I would try and get someone older to help me if I were you.

eastern, i registered at uship.com and people "bid" on your shipment, someone said theyd do it door to door for 300$ im going to get them to do it..

now i just gotta see if david has a paypal account or some way i can pay him without seeing him in person or mailing it. plus hes not answering his phone haha.

if you got some free time drop by that shop and take some pics for me / talk to david. hahah

thanks again for all your help piro smile.gif
