Shipping a cab questions ideas??

[Field and Son]

I am wanting to buy a 1975 crew cab-cab only with doors near Austin Texas and am looking for advise or a way to get it shipped to Wisconsin ideally but have relation in northern Arkansas or Western Iowa and could get there. Any shippers or trucking companies that would do such a job, or anyone here making a trip??

I just had an entire suburban shipped from the deserts out west over to the east coast and used this guy. He is a car guy and knows how to take care of vintage tin and not tear it up like some of these companies out there. Super guy, reliable and reasonable rates.

one thing I've found is if the vehicle cannot roll; ie is off the chassis, then they charge a good bit more for it.

For example 2 years ago I did a bunch of shipping research: a cab, only a cab from CO to FL would run me around 600-1000. It doesn't roll, and takes up two pallets worth of floor space.
if it was a full truck it'd be 600-1000, it'd take up much more floor space, but it would roll(much easier to load and unload) .
I can also see the cab by itself susceptible to much more damage than a full vehicle/chassis.

Anyways, be prepared for the run around, since it's not on wheels. Might be worth building an inexpensive dolly just for the trip.

Also U-ship rocks...
