Offering Direct Enclosed Auto Transport Year Round In The Lower (48) States

Hey your coming to my town.

If your coming up 71 from Cincinnati area there is some nasty lane chances and closures south of columbus just b4 the I71-I70 interchange. Pretty clear up to cleveland, slight lane shifting on 471

 

Thanks !

Seems they are always working on that road ...

I will be coming east along the I-80 toll road.

It has been an interesting and busy past couple weeks ...

I visited French Lake Auto Parts in Annandale, Minnesota
when I dropped off a 1963 Nova Race Car Project with a trailer full of parts ...



This is the location that Gas Monkey Garage
found the 1969 Mustang Boss 429 at back in 2014.

I interviewed the Family Patriarch Floyd - who started
the three generation family owned & operated business back in 1956.

At 87 he still works every day ...

I took several videos of the classic car section that I posted to Facebook.

Then I took a 1923 Model T Coupe to Bismark, Illinois.

I interviewed Russell Potter as part of my
Small Business Legends video series on Facebook.

Russ has rebuilt over 6000 Model T Carburetors and is passing the torch to his son Jim.

Then I went to pick up a 1936 Ford 3 Window Coupe that was
chopped and rodded in the late 1940's - early 1950's.

I got to visit a private Ford Hot Rod Collection of (50) years
that has never been filmed for the Public.

American Pickers repeatedly requested and were denied access.



I took several videos of cars for sale and posted them on Facebook.

Then I picked up a 1935 Cadillac LaSalle in Hartland, Wisconsin.

I dropped it off to my friend Al in Medina, Ohio and took videos
for my Small Business Legends album on Facebook.

Al is a master wood body craftsman.

Every vehicle I transport has a Story To Tell

If I had to pick one image to sum up what I do - this would be it ...







My friend Grant is behind the wheel of his newly acquired 1916 Stanley Mountain Steam Wagon.

His friend Arthur is seated next to him - friends and neighbors help frame the moment.

I had transported this vehicle down to Portland DMV from Anacortes, WA & back for inspection.

In my trailer is a 1913 Stanley Mountain Steam Wagon that Grant just sold - it is headed to California.

These would be my third and fourth Stanley Mountain Steam Wagons I was fortunate to transport.

Grant would drive without lights to the Washington Ferry at Anacortes right after I took this shot.

A bomb scare would delay their trip to Orcas Island where Grant owns & operates
the only commercial tour service utilizing a Stanley Mountain Steam Wagon in North America.

Grant & his wife Kathryn along with his Dad Kenny in Wichita, Kansas and Heather his caretaker are my friends now.

Thanks but Winter has arrived.

Hmmmm... I wonder who lives in Bellevue, WA???

 

Hi Steve

I will post the interview with your Dad when I drop off your car.




It had a nice ride to Gilbert with the 1927 Model T Touring I was hauling from North Carolina.





Dave in Gilbert had a really nice Man Cave and was nice enough to let me video it after I dropped
off the 1927 Model T Touring ....

Sounds good - looks like I'll see you next week.

 

Jim, What would you charge for shipping a car from Madison, CT to Seattle, WA?

 

I would not schedule that transport until the Spring because of the weather.

You are welcome to call me to discuss transport in general.


Thanks !
