    Transportation

    Thanks Cammer! I can be reached at [email protected] if you want some help. We only transport cars in two-car enclosed race car trailers and all cars are insured. We transport exotics all the time. Do a search on "Almond" and you'll see what other owners have said about my...

    Need Car Transport Advice.... Any Suggestions?

    Thanks for mentioning me Tony. I've got several drivers now that transport cars for me. Just like any business that grows, there comes a time when it no longer makes sense to be a one-man band. After almost 5 years on the road full time and 680,000 miles, it was time to grow the business and...

    Bottom Line No Buyer For The Viper

    They probaby don't have an offer yet. As long as they're in bankruptcy potential buyers have everything to gain to wait it out and let the value continue to decline. At some point, one of the suitors will decide that the price is too good to wait any longer and risk being outbid by somebody...

    Just Totaled My Viper

    Sorry to hear about your accident Tom. Sometimes things just happen the way they do, no second guessing necessary here. I hope you recover quickly in every possible way.

    Is Our Beloved Viper Next?

    Of course the power is awesome, but I don't know if I could ever get over not having the sound of a good internal combustion engine. I mean, it just wouldn't be the same going through a tunnel at about 4500 rpms. I guess I would have to invest in some super-powerful audio system to create the...

    Gooseneck trailer

    I've never seen a gooseneck in a 24 footer and I've never seen a 5th wheel (RV type) on any kind of car trailer. You'll probably have to go up in size. Gooseneck is definitely the way to haul cars. It doesn't "buck" or "porpoise" like a tag trailer hitch does.

    Viper Mechanic in Utah?

    The only guy I know is Dave Harris at Hinckley Dodge in Salt Lake City. I don't know if he's still there, but he was the man a few years ago when it came to high performance work on Vipers in Utah.

    Went to Alan Jacksons today...

    I believe that his spread is about 400 acres. I went there a few years ago and it's quite the place. That Challenger IS huge. It fills up almost every nook and cranny of my trailer. It's definitely one of the biggest late model cars out there. About the same size as the Bentley GT, but...

    I decided to get a dedicated number for the transport business. I guess just in time huh? I haven't had a chance to put the new number on my website yet. You can also contact me at [email protected] and I'll get back to you. Hey Gus!!

    Looking for auto shipper from Northern CA

    Thanks for the recommendation, guys. I'm all over the US and have added drivers in the Southwest, Midwest, and one guy who pretty much just goes from San Diego to Seattle. All of the drivers have lots of experience with Vipers, GTs, Ferraris, Lambos, and Corvettes and are fully insured. Let...

    What is cost to transport Viper from San Diego

    Carl, I got your email and was just getting ready to respond but it looks like it already worked out for you with the local sale. Congrats and let me know if I can help in the future.

    Transport cost?

    Transport costs are all over the map, so it's impossible to get one single answer. If you go open carrier, you take big risks with your car. I wouldn't recommend it. One time I saw an SRT-10 on an open carrier (bottom rack) and a 1974 ****** pickup truck directly on the top. It just isn't...

    2007 24' Haulmark trailer listed in classifieds

    Well, of course it depends on the back log of any particular shop, but I just had some major work done on a trailer and it only took about 3 days. I'm guessing a door install would only take a day or two, but the total time depends on how long it will take for them to start it. One shop I know...

    2007 24' Haulmark trailer listed in classifieds

    The location of the factory right side door will never line up with the Viper door, so backing in doesn't help. Winching the car in is a piece of cake. Alternatively, you can have a driver's side door installed at a good trailer shop for around $600 (give or take). PM me for contacts if you...
