    I am currently pricing classic cars in the UK. I have e-mailed about 7 companies in the Uk and Ireland regarding shipping the car from the UK to Ireland. Not one company has replied, so much for the economic downturn. Nobody want by business. My question to anyone out there. Do you know of a shipping company that is reliable and not too expensive?

    I bought and sold three classic cars for Golden Oldies Self-Drive Classics in the UK and used Harron transport of Kesh in northern Ireland. One each occasion they were prompt careful and reasonably priced.
    don't have their number to hand but google them, worth a call.

    Thank for the offer. My classic is a 1956 chevy pickup. 3 tons in weight, 16 feet long, 6 feet wide and 6 feet high.

    It must be a big truck.
