Question: Hi I was wondering if this could be done the 2nd week of august?? I have a 24ft enclosed car hauler that I would dedicate to your vehicle for shipment. I would charge $600. Please let me know about the dates so I can bid. Thanks. Mike (7/11/2007)
Response: I think this could work. I will need to confirm with the seller but it should work on my receiving end. Would you also be able to transport a spare motor and windshield for the price? It should fit in easily I'd think. Thanks, Steve (7/11/2007)
Response: Sure I don't see where that would be a problem. We would wrap the windshield and take extra care of it. Please let me know when you know about the dates from the seller. Thanks -Mike (7/11/2007)
Response: Hi, Are you still interested? Dates are pretty flexible between now and July 24th, then again after the 29th. Prefer sooner rather than later but am flexible. Please LMK. I have other offers but I wanted to give you a chance at it. Thanks, - Steve

Response: Hi. I really thank you for giving me a chance. My problem is I would not be able to do this until after the 8th of august. I know you would like to have it earlier, and I do not blame you. I suggest you go with the other offer only because at this time I can not guarantee a date and it would not be for a few weeks. Again,I do appreciate the way you handle business, most people out there are not fair in these matters, they just want it now and cheap! Happy shipping!!!! Thanks- Alisha (7/12/2007)
Response: OK, thanks for letting me know. If for some reason I haven't found a good match for transport before August 8, I'll let you know. - Steve (7/12/2007)
Response: Great! That will work, but I am pretty sure you will find a good match. There are alot of good and decent transporters on this site. The competition is always stiff!! (7/12/2007)
Question: Hey Steve,
I could transport right away for $600 plus any tolls involved on a 30 foot open trailer and vehicle would be by itself. Thanks

Response: Hi Steve,
Would you also be able to bring back a spare engine (corvair engine 6cyl aluminum) and windshield with it? They won't fit in the Rampside but seems that your rig is plenty big enough to bring it too. Thanks, Steve
(7/11/2007)
Response: Yes, If you can have loaded and unloaded?? Let me know and can bring it as early as Saturday.Thanks
William(Steve)Duncan WATERFORD MI (7/11/2007)
Response: Hi, I can have it loaded, but I'm not sure about unloading the spare motor. - Steve (7/12/2007)
Response: Hey Mike,
I do not have any way to unload either unless by hand?? Not sure how that would work?? Steve (7/12/2007)
Response: I'm not sure either. I have 330lb capacity lift cart but it's possible the engine is just over that; not sure. - Steve (7/12/2007)
Response: All I can suggest is maybe a dolly or something?? Let me know if and when you are ready and I will re bid. Thanks again for the consideration. William(Steve)Duncan WATERFORD MI (7/12/2007)
Response: OK, we can probably do it with a Dolly and a cart and two of us moving the engine/transmission. Everything else should be pretty straightforward. One possibly limiting factor is length of your rig. I have a narrow, winding street that ends in a cul-de-sac. Large moving vans can't do it though oil delivery and garbage trucks do fine, as do smaller trailers; I just haven't seen a longer trailer try it. I suppose worst case scenario is you'd need to unhitch, turn the trailer around and re-hitch. Still with me? One more question - what kind of experience do you have transporting antique autos? Maybe we can make this work and get this going soon! Thanks,
- Steve (7/12/2007)
Response: Hey Steve,
I have been hauling antique tractors and vehicls since Aug 2000. The problem with the trailer is I can't move it if it is unhooked. I can probably back down your street?? Let me know and I will put in the bid again :) Thanks William(Steve)Duncan Waterford MI (7/13/2007)
Response: Trust me, you will not be able to back out of my street. That I know. However, if I can't find a shipper that can got to my door in a day or two, I will consider meeting you on a street location nearby where you could unload. (7/13/2007)
Question: Hey, We are going to be there Monday or Tuesday sometime and would like to haul your truck to Pennsylvania for you. We will haul it for $500.00+u-ship fees. We have US DOT & MC number & Cargo Ins. At no cost to you. Please let me know soon? Thanks JerryD123326 (7/13/2007)
Response: Oh, sorry. Meant to ask if you can also bring along a spare motor/transmission and windshield. Also, based on the size of your rig I will need to meet you on a side street because you won't be able to get back out of my street... Thanks, Steve (7/13/2007)
Response: Hey, We will put the truck on a one car trailer and put the other stuff on the bck of the truck is that ok? I am going to put my bid in now and when you let me know that I won it I will get everything then. Thanks JerryD123326 (7/13/2007)
Question: Hey, Really need to know if you are happy with my bid? Please let me know something real soon so that I can work on another load back please. Thanks JerryD123326 (7/13/2007)
Response: Yes, bid amount is OK. I was eating dinner with my family and away from my computer. The only real limitation I have on my end is that I can't take delivery evening Wednesday. I just left a message for the seller to confirm for certain his availability Monday / Tuesday, though he had previously indicated he'd be there. If you prefer that I accept your bid first let me know. Thanks. (7/13/2007)
Response: Hey, yes I understand that you can't be theere on Wednesday evening and I would like for you to expact my bid now Thanks JerryD123326 (7/13/2007)
Response: I think there's a typo and I don't understand what is "expact"? But I will accept bid - If you're using a one car trailer (good) - it'll get down my street, (also good). Someone else is trying to low-ball your bid but it's yours :) (7/13/2007)
Response: Hey, Please accept my bid now Thanks JerryD123326 (7/13/2007)
