Enclosed Transport
Essential for high-value classics like the Jaguar E-Type, Shelby Cobra, or Pontiac GTO, enclosed trailers offer full protection during transit.

Custom Loading Procedures
Low-clearance cars or those with unique builds may require liftgates or soft tie-downs to avoid frame or undercarriage stress.

Quick Guide To Classic Car Shipping
What is the cheapest car transport service?
Open transport is typically the most cost-effective option. However, for classic car transport, enclosed shipping is recommended—even if it comes at a higher price—for maximum protection.
What is a modern day classic car?
A modern classic is generally a vehicle aged 20–40 years that holds collectible or nostalgic value. Examples include the BMW E30, Mazda RX-7, and early Mustang GTs.
Is there money to be made in classic cars?
Yes, many classic cars appreciate over time. With proper maintenance and documentation, collector car transport can help preserve value for future resale or auctions.
What is the most cost-effective way to transport a car?
For standard vehicles, open transport works well. For vintage or antique auto transport, the safest and most cost-effective solution is enclosed shipping with a reliable auto transport company.
