buying cars over long distances question

I have mine shipped, because by the time you add in gas, trailer rental if you don't own one and motel/food, you are only a few hundred apart. Plus, if you break down you might end up even more expensive than shipping.

I had the '73 Dart Sport shipped from TX for about $900 because it wasn't running and that's a bit extra. Shipping a big, running Pontiac from NJ to here was about $700, and the '63 Olds that's coming soon should be another $900 bill.

Cars like those last two will NOT fit safely on a U-Haul auto transport, and if you lie and say you are hauling a Geo metro, and wreck it....:sad10:

Of course, if you have a Ram 3500 and nice modern 18ft trailer sitting in the drive then you can afford to do whatever you choose:cheers:
