Questions for this shipment: 

Question: I can bring your package, leaving Texas on the 26th with my 24 foot box truck. How do you plan on loading and unloading? I can deliver within 2 days from pickup date for $1,500. If this works for you, let me know and I will place a formal bid. Thanks, Ron, osirix4u (3/20/2007)
Response: I plan on flying in and assisting on loading in Texas and assisting on unloading in California. I was trying to keep the cost close to what I am paying to ship cars from Dallas and Houston and avoid driving the uhaul truck loaded with this and pulling other projects. Thank You for your offer but it is still a bit expensive. (3/20/2007)
Question: I pull a 2 axle car hauling trailer behind my 24 foot box truck. Do you have another vehicle I could bring? If so, I could do both for 1650. Thanks, Ron, osirix4u (3/20/2007)
Response: I wish they would come up with a better way for us to make contact than indirect email through their server.I will check my AOL email a little more often. I may have another car and will call and see if they are going to part with it. I have three cars leaving Friday two inside a 26 foot box truck(the doors will not close because part of the car is sticking out) and one on the back trailer.Should have put the kit in first but lack of coordination and time seem to get in the way of good planning. Charles (3/20/2007)
Question: One more question, exactly how wide is the shipment? My truck is just over 8 feet wide but the door opening is 7 foot 8 inches. Thanks, Ron, osirix4u (3/20/2007)
Response: Hi, the kit is closer to 1500 to 1600 pounds, It measurements are closer to 18X7X5 according to the gentleman holding the car. The kit is on angle iron skids and when origianlly purchased he was able to get two of these inside his box van stacked on top of each other. Hope that helps. (3/20/2007)
Question: Thanks for the quick response. The measurements are fine. There should be no need to stack if the whole is not more than the 18 to 22 feet long. I am ready if you are. I have bid on another auto going to California. If I get that bid, I can lower my offer on your shipment. I must leave Texas not later than the 26th or 27th as I have a load scheduled to come to San Antonio from Long Beach on the 29th. Thanks, Ron, osirix4u (3/20/2007)
Response: If you are able to lower the bid I would be ready to go. Let me know if you get the auto load. Charles (3/20/2007)
