I need to have my 1948 Buick transported 200 miles. My son's wedding is in April and this is a family tradition.

I'm getting bids that are unrealistically low and am suspicious that there is more here than meets the eye. For them to haul the car down and then make the return trip the quotes are running from $200 to $225 all inclusive. I don't see how they would buy the fuel for that.

Assuming there would be a 200 mile return trip (without the car) that figures out to just a bit more than 50 cents per mile.

What are the questions I should be asking? All the companies claim to be insured.

Also, anyone have suggestions on evaluating these companies? I must have 10 quotes in writing.

Thanks, and sorry for the non-GMC content, but since the car will be on a flatbed type truck, maybe there is relevance here.
