How to pay and ship a project car?? - 06/02/21 02:50 AM
I haven't done anything stupid for a while so it's time.
I am considering buying a project car, sight unseen, and was wondering what is the best way to pay for a car to a private seller out of state (craigslist)? I don't think there is any real protection from an unhonest person so I guess it probably doesn't make much difference how you pay. I'm sure the seller will want money up front ($7K) so I'm guessing wiring the money or money order.
Also, how have you guys shipped complete project cars (not dissassembled) that is not running? Any thoughts on cost for a transport of some kind from Arizona to Washington (~1200 miles)?
