My dad just gave us one of his cars... Just gotta get it from GA to ME

Just the way it is //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif I found a local guy who has been doing this for 28 yrs and got a referral from my boss actually, and it's $750 nearly door to door. I can get it up here fully insured with not one mile put on it for less than it would cost me and my wife and child to fly or drive down to my parents, lodging since its a 2 day trip driving, food, gas, tolls, unexpected events i.e. tire blowout (on an 18 or 19 inch wide tire that wouldnt be cheap to fix) or accident... it just is not worth it. I can sit here at work and cover the cost of the shipment in the time it takes the thing to be trailered up here. Speaking of cover - I need to see if he has one to put on it for the trip //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/cool.gif.3bcaf8f141236c00f8044d07150e34f7.gif

 
a few more - that shipping wars show sounds fun, //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif

Well when you put it like that.... it makes sense hahahahaha. As long as you're not afraid to drive her around town. 1200 miles is definitely a two day trip, or a really long one day trip. It wouldn't be feasible at all to bring the family.

So, you're gonna cut out the back seat and do a sealed off trunk set-up in this one right? Gotta woop on Dave's Saleen :p

I also like that your dad owned this.... and not you 10 years ago. He didn't do anything stupid or tacky with it. Left the exterior be. Simple and clean. Upgraded the engine compartment. KISS.

 
nah I will be keeping it unmolested... I told my wife I'm done with stereos and she told me to hold that thought and down the line we may be able to do what I originally intended on //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/wink.gif.608e3ea05f1a9f98611af0861652f8fb.gif but until then, anyone have any interest in a ss6500d or a few (3) soundstream spl-hx 12d2's? just kicking it around //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/wink.gif.608e3ea05f1a9f98611af0861652f8fb.gif

 
Got hooked up for Easter with the title and tee shirt signed by Jack Roush. When the 'rents get back from FL in about two wks I will initiate the trucking process :)
