    Good vehicle shipping transport companies.

    My "transport job" has been posted on this holy central data base board already. Actually twice which might be the problem. First broker said and posted 1150. second inside friend recommended and posted 700. Either way, its a crap shoot because all you can check is if the carrier who bid...

    Check out the rare ford I just bought and conversion question

    Its the NV4500. PO told me the 6bt was a 1994,, but with a ve pump?. So until I actually pick this van up, I wont know more. Im thinking a couple of dana 60's. But not sure on leafs or the NP205 yet. This sounds expensive, but so rewarding..

    Good vehicle shipping transport companies.

    Yup. Guess all they can do is make sure the carrier has insurance and how long they have been hauling.. friend of a friend has my job posted on this central data base deal for $700 and we will see. No broker fee.:) If this was a more valuable car I don't think I would do this.

    Good vehicle shipping transport companies.

    I bought a van out of state and even though the owner has agreed he would store the van for a month so I can get a cheaper plane ticket.. I'm still wondering if a Vehicle Shipping and transport company would be a better choice as I don't need to see the vehicle. Its paid and mine. Anyone...

    Quigley vs Pathfinder..

    Interesting.. Still not sure I trust 6 lugs to support 1250 lb tongue weight and 10000 pounds of trailer.. The pathfinder I found close by has 8 lug 1 ton axles.. But only a wimpy 350.. always something.

    Quigley vs Pathfinder..

    Yes he wrote me a email back.. Parts that were obsolete have been replaced by new and improved designs, so there is little that is not available. Quigleys Fords have the 4 link designed suspension much like the little Jeep Cherokee's and Dodge pickups of the 90's and early 2000's. while...

    Quigley vs Pathfinder..

    I recently came across a clean 78 Chevy 3/4 ton pathfinder close to me and wanted to hear opinions about the pathfinder conversion capabilities and limitations. What I have learned so far is all GM/Pathfinder vans had leaf springs, which must be a advantage over coils if you want larger tires...

    Quigley E250 donor under a 2wd diesel E350?

    Im sure the van would be better off but I would be poorer. I think it would cost allot more than $3k to source the axle and other bits. Let alone the extra parts from the donor e250
