Second, were it me, I wouldn't use a commercial carrier again either because of the lack of special attention required for antique vehicles in general, and "my baby" in particular. Many have used these carriers with great results, 'guess I was just unlucky. You didn't mention your shipping method, but regardless, I hope your gem arrives safe and sound. It sure deserves it based on the pics.
Congratulations!

Thank you. The shipper has been dealing with this classic car dealer for 15 years (dont know the name) but they to insure everything. Thansk for the advise. Also do you think the price paid for the truck is good>?
