Gary you run a real first class operation. As a fellow exotic car transporter and Viper owner hats off to ya. Vipers and all high end and classic cars need a first class transport car company. That takes the time to do it right. Non stacking and low clearance provisions are important. But the passion of owning a Viper and the love of fine automobiles and the knowledge about them that comes with it, is Paramount.

When I shipped my car from the Bay Area to Las Vegas I only made one phone call..Gary Almond! Hey Gary, have you taken delivery of that new trailer you were talking about. I still need to get the Woodie to Vegas.

Hey Dave, good to hear from you! I was in Vegas just yesterday to drop off a twin turbo 96 GTS. I still can't believe the incredible restoration job you did on that Woodie!

The 48 footer still isn't ready yet (no thanks to Pace American), but I bought a 28' unit and had removable internal ramps built for it. That way, if the car/pickup is too tall I can remove the ramps for more headroom. There shouldn't be any problem with your car either way. I'll be in the SF Bay area the week before Christmas (heading back to SLC). Let me know when you're ready!

My 48 ft Pace American has been a pretty good trailer it has sleeping quaters with A/C and outlets with inverter for computers,TVs etc. But I will never buy another Pace there service department is not to good. My other trailer which will be done in the spring will be an Exiss 3 car non stacker of course with air ride supension and air ride hitch. It will be pulled by a Sport Chassis Freight Liner M2 with air ride as well and sleeper. This rig will allow for continued top notch service for my customers and cradeling there Vipers in a pillow soft ride.

Not trying to be a smart alec but,I was curious. One of the post read that you don't insure the cars you transport. That the owner has to maintain insurance to cover any possible damage when you transport there cars.How do you transport cars across state lines comercially without insuring your cargo or in your case cargo? With out getting in a jam with the ICC or USDOT? I by law have to insure all cars that I transport for there full curent condition value. Or USDOT would not give me operating authority to my company to transport automobiles on an interstate. I could'nt even do it with in my state with out ILL Comerce Comission giving me intrastate authority in ILL.
