What's $1400 shipping vs. hours of cutting, patching and feathering - or worse yet, paying some shop to do it when they find the time??? And this 66 has ALL the bodywork (little that it was) done already??? Reshoot the tired paint (and I really am pissed that the paint went to hell on it so fast!), finish assembly (upholstery'd done already!) and drive. > I'm definitely with ya on this one James.

I am POSITIVE that car can be shipped for less than $1,400.00, probably about half that number, ya just have to do some homework. Also, for those who don't want to have to pay that shipping, I happen to have a '64 wagon right here on the east coast that I'll be happy to sell for that shipping price. <G> SignatureSonny http://RacingStudebakers.com > James and Sonny are so right - Geez, didn't we just HAVE this discussion? > What's $1400 shipping vs. hours of cutting, patching and feathering - or [quoted text clipped - 96 lines] > > > >>>>1966 Cruiser > > > >>>>(2) Studebaker Factory Parts Train Cars BTW, was it my guy that quoted that figure ?

Also, shipping a non-running car costs more than shipping a running car. $900 might be about correct for a runner from CA to WI, but $1400 might also be correct for a non-runner. Gary L. Studebaker Drivers Club Director - Northeast Zone 36 year member of Studebaker Drivers Club, Inc. Most I every got quoted for a non-running car was $150 over the running car price. Most of the time it has only been $100 over the running car price. > >BTW, was it my guy that quoted that figure ? Seems high, but could be > >because you are both in the boonies. [quoted text clipped - 5 lines] > Studebaker Drivers Club Director - Northeast Zone > 36 year member of Studebaker Drivers Club, Inc. >Most I every got quoted for a non-running car was $150 over the running car >price. I have only shipped running cars and trucks (many of them). Since I figured that the shipment in question should be about $900, I ASSumed that the difference up to the $1400 mentioned must be due to a non-running vehicle. $100-$150 difference for a vehicle that the shipper can't just drive on and off the truck seems like a good deal. Gary L. Studebaker Drivers Club Director - Northeast Zone 36 year member of Studebaker Drivers Club, Inc. Here is another possibilty, If the engine and interior among other things are not inside of the car but is being shipped with the car then there would be an extra cost over the $100 to $150. I have seen this on my contracts. However if the engine and everything else is placed into the car and scured then there is no extra charges. > >Most I every got quoted for a non-running car was $150 over the running car > >price. [quoted text clipped - 7 lines] > Studebaker Drivers Club Director - Northeast Zone > 36 year member of Studebaker Drivers Club, Inc. My shipper even allowed 100 pounds of "extras" inside the car. In other words, they wouldn't like it if it was crammed full of extra parts, but loose stuff for the car was ok. The one I had shipped from CA had a bunch of extras Pat had put inside and in the trunk, no problem. From just below LA, CA to my front door in Hamburg, NY was $800.00, (my car ran, $100.00 more if not), and he said it would have been cheaper if I could have waited. That's the secret too, if it MUST be there overnite, you pay.

They just winch 'em right up Gary. My brother Leo and I just went to get one in MI a couple of months ago and we met the transporter at a rest area. The guy let it down off the truck and even winched it onto my brothers trailer, all in about 30 minutes. The old flathead Furd hadn't run in years but it was easy as pie.

[quoted text clipped - 7 lines] > Studebaker Drivers Club Director - Northeast Zone > 36 year member of Studebaker Drivers Club, Inc. Well, that may be true for some shipping companies, but mine only charged $100.00 more. If they can get away with charging $500.00, yep, five HUNDRED dollars more because it's not running, and everybody seems to agree with that price, then I know what my next business is gonna be. I gotta start a coast to coast Studebaker transport service. <G> I can't understand for the life of me why it's so hard to shop around.

He was $450.00 dollars higher than I got it shipped for and around $150.00 to $200.00 more than the other apx. 10 bids I got.
