You can call Nichole at Hilton Auto Transport. She's always been fantastic to deal with.

wife's company is relocating to Dallas and paying for everything! hate it in Phoenix so the change will be nice. we're renting an apartment for the first year until we decide what neighborhoods are the best to buy and going to be easier to find an apartment without that third car lol.
plus i'm going to have some work done to her, probably rebuilding the 289 with a mild cam and upgrading the brakes.
the plan is for the wife and i to drive her back to Dallas next year as a several day road trip!
and as another plus, now we'll have a bad ass car stored in the Bay when the wife and i come to visit and cruise around!

I have had great results with uship.com. Sent a Factory Five car, enclosed, from FL to AZ for less than $1300.

You have to wait sometimes on getting a good deal, but as long as you're not in a rush, I think it's worth it.
