Reliable has a 5-6 month wait.

I went with someone a buddy recommended.  Buddy does BJ every year and uses him.  Hes a broker but only offers hauls to his trusted sources.
I was reluctant but they were the best outfit Id used so far.  Ive went with Passport, Reliable, Fed Ex for years but the service I got was top notch!
Glad I can recommend him.  I forget the name of his business, only his number.  Muhammad 307-220-5220
Tell him Mike Groff & Tom Benson recommended you.

I have never had one for a 3000 mile trip like that.
I had one transported that way about 900 miles.

Pretty timely, very professional.

There are a handful of sites to plug in and get an estimate.

Hi Folks,               10 June 2022

The best information we have on Duncan's car is that it did arrive in California at its desired arrival point. Scott and Matt did a fine job of seeing that it made the cross country trip in a timely and safe manner. We do not know if it has departed for Auckland New Zealand; that was out of our purview.

Now the next info is that Scott Lee has decided to relocate here to Phoenix and will operate his "Lee Brothers Transport" from here. We are happy he has chosen to operate his Transport service from Dena's truck Facility.

His relocation will give me added incentive to acquire a CDL. Have always had a fascination with Hot Cars and Big Rigs / Trucks.

Take care Folks.

Hi Folks,                  12 June 2022

Duncan's car is in California, safely stored inside waiting for the ship. Should be on the way to its new home soon. Duncan said it'll take about 4 weeks to get to New Zealand.

That's a long boat ride. Reminds me of my time in the Navy and when I worked for the Navy as a contract engineer, 28 days out, 7 days inport. Did that for 6 1/2 years.

Did enjoy being at sea. Hard to explain, it was like living in a very small town or better, a small island. We had almost everything one could need: Restaurant, Store, Laundromat, Beach, Movie Theater, Library, Gym, Hospital if needed,  Numerous Bars (not official but there) and really nice living quarters (best in the Navy). It was great duty. At times I do miss it, though too old to do it now. Lots of fond memories and lasting friendships. The 22nd of this month it'll be 50 years since I was last there.

Talk about a Hijack.

Best Always
