If you want an absolutely trouble free experience, use one of the "name brand" carriers. They can be found either on line or in Hemmings Motor News. (Passport which is now FexEx is the oldest and probably the best.) Gypsy carriers (one man operations) can save you money, but can also be chancey. I did check into one man that advertised in Hemmings that has an enclosed trailer that sounded very good, gave me a time line, etc and a firm price. I think the ad referred to many years of satisfied customers. I didnt use him as the guy I was dealing with never sent me pictures of the exterior of the car over a months time and I bought another car that I could drive home.

I used Passport a couple of years ago (shipped my 60 Coupe from FL to CA) and was very satisfied.  I priced a number of carriers and they were very competitive.  However, others on this board claim that Passport costs a lot more based on their comparisons.
