I'd drive it out for the price of a place ticket to Houston and back home to Tampa, FL! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif)

Are you looking for an enclosed trailer or open?

You can always put it up for bid on Uship. I had a car going 200 miles, bids ranged from $195 to $600.

In very near future, I too will need to ship an 6 engine from LA to Portland.

Question is, how reliable is Uship? If you have and had an issue how difficult / receptive are they in resolving concern?

Thanks

I used these guys to ship my 911 from Colorado to PA.

A Across USA Auto Transport
800-243-0066
corey@aacrossusa.com

Order was done online. Talked to Corey a couple of times.

I had the phone # of the driver and talked to him a couple of times. I ordered service on Sat; car was picked up on Mon in Denver; dropped off on Thurs in PA. $775; open trailer. Expect to pay double for enclosed trailer.

The one thing to watch out for is the shipping company doesn't transfer your car from trailer to trailer. Make sure it stays on the same truck therefore minimizing the shipping time and chance that it could get damaged during the transfer.

Once you get close to choosing a transporter, look here to get a review of their service.

Used UShip from Iowa to South Carolina about 30 days ago. 2010 Tacoma 4x4.

Great service in blowing snow to hot South. Wouldn't give me a guarantee for delivery under 7 days. They did it in 4!!

$1500 was worth getting it unloaded in my drive (guy washed it 1st of road salts, etc.).
