[Tigers] Car Shipping Question

Steve,

I used Sierra Mountain Express back in 1989 located in Concord, California.
They delivered my current Tiger from Washington state to Bakersfield, Ca.
It was an open trailer, cost about $300 back then.  We arranged a certain
time and place ahead of time;  when I showed up, the car was off the trailer
and ready to drive.  My one experience with them was positive.  Don't even
know if they are still in business...

Subject: [Tigers] Car Shipping Question

Hello Sunbeamers:
Well, I'm Sunbeamless, having sold my Tiger last summer. And I'm Roootesless
for the first time in probably 35 years or so. Hopefully I'll get into one
again.

In the meantime, I've bought a nice 1985 Mazda RX7 GSL-SE, the last year of
the original style RX7 and the top of the line model. No Tiger horsepower
but pretty zippy. Supposedly 7.6 seconds to 8 seconds (depending on the
review) 0-60. Way faster than any of the Alpines I've owned through the
years anyway.

Does anyone have any car shipping company experience/suggestions? I need to
get it from northern California to near Tucson, Arizona where I am. I filled
out an on line car shipping quote request form and I got literally more than
20 quotes, ranging from $525 low (cheap) and all the way up to almost $1,000
(ridiculous), all in an open carrier truck. 
Naturally I want to pay the least but don't want to wait a long time to get
the car picked up.

So, any company recommendation where you've had a car shipped yourself would
be greatly appreciated.

Thanks!
Steve Sage
