Jon -
In recent years, I have used both Passport and Reliable with excellent results.
I have shipped my Healey, Corvette and Mercedes. The drivers in all cases were
very professional and treated my cars with the utmost care (at least while I
watched the loading/unloading process). I think the Passport owner is a Healey
owner.The rough neck looking guys are usually dispatched through a broker. I
would not use a broker for that very reason. It may be the cheaper option, but
peace of mind trumps cheap for me.

If the car is in good condition why not drive it down??
There are some spectacular secondary roads all the way down to Texas. Mostly
along more or less coastal roads. Just set the satnav at "avoid motorways/toll
roads" Very enjoyable driving. 2000+ miles in 4-5 days (New Haven-San Antonio).
A lot cheaper, including H/Motels/B&B and return flight.

Does anyone have any good suggestions to ship a Healey from Connecticut to
Texas in an enclosed trailer? The reviews on the standard shipping companies
sound uniformly horrible: untrustworthy, rude, irresponsible, etc. One of the
reviewers described the industry as drivers? who are "aging Hells Angels" and
shipping companies which just put the job out to bid and then have little
interest in when the car is picked up or delivered. Ugh.?
thanks jon
