I drove mine from MD to Marc late fall for some work. Flew home on Southwest for $50 one way. Now just waiting for clear skies to grab the $50 one way flight and drive her home. I had one way quotes from Marc's place to MD averaging $1000 for enclosed and $700 for open transport. A list of 3 transport companies can be found at Marc's website. I had a blast driving out but sure the ride back will be even better.
Marty's group at Conte in NJ are also very good and the closest for you. Next further out would be Dempsey at Evolution Motorsports in VA who is also very good.

Thanks everyone for your input. I waiting for some more quotes to come in from other carriers. Glad to Conte's corvette is a good shop to go to also. I have no major repairs needed. It is all the same stuff everyone else has seats, radio, fluid change ect...... It will either be Haibeck or Conte I am thinking.

My 91 was not driven much in the last 20 years. Dempsey at Evolution Motorsports in VA got it up and running, got it VA state inspected and put enough test miles on so I could bring it home without AAA. I am working on a 2nd list to review with Dempsey pending time out for a hip to be replaced.
He will work with you on your goals while adding practical advice.

Your about 60 miles from me....I know Patchogue pretty well....I bought my Z from gateway classics in Chicago near Marcs shop.....I paid 430 dollars in an open trailer..I went on U ship.com and companies bid for your service....Montway transport was the company...

Dempsey at Evolution motorsports is another Z specialist like a previous member stated...He did performance work on my car.....He's in Fredricksburgh VA ...From you its about 320 miles or so...

Have you dealt with Conte corvettes in New Jersey?

Glad you had Marc fix it. Like many others, I had Marc work on my 1990 Z. I'm lucky that I'm only 2 hours North. For you guys further away, prices for transport are just crazy.


If I quit my job, could I earn enough by portering ZR-1s to Marc's??
