Default Passport auto transport

Looking for any advice from anybody that has used Passport Car Haulers to transport a car. I have a 55 Chev resto-mod that I'm thinking of using Passport to haul in an enclosed trailer from Santa Barbara calif to Plymouth Minnesota at the end of April.

Any recommendations on Passport or other car haulers?

Thanks Tom. I tried Reliable as 1 of my first choices, but they have a 3-5 week window for picking up the car which, in my opinion is way to long to wait around for their call.

No. I never was able to buy the Torque V12. This one has a BPM 730cid V12.
If you have a chance go to Jay Leno's Garage on Youtube and search for Gary Kollofski's 55 Chev.

Very nice and extremely well executed 55. Not many can say they had Jay drive their car and give feed back like that.
