Shipping a Delorean?

["Wright, Ryan (LW)" <Ryan.Wright@xxxx>]

Does anyone have any experience with shipping a Delorean, or cars in
general, across the country? I'm up here in Washington State, and I've got
my eye on a car way down near Florida. If I decide to buy it, my original
plan was to fly down there and drive it home. I figure this will cost me in
the area of $2000, by the time you consider airfare, gas, food, and perhaps
a hotel stay or two. (I'd actually just planned to sleep in the car for 4
hours at a time, here and there, and drive straight through. Don't laugh:
I've never been in a Delorean but from what I've seen, it looks like it has
more room than my '85 Fiero, and I've slept fairly comfortably in that a
number of times) Might give me a chance to meet other Delorean owners on the
way, too.

However, I got to thinking, $2000 would go a long ways towards having it
shipped. However, I have absolutely no idea what is involved in shipping a
car, let alone what it might cost.

Any thoughts/suggestions?
