It used to be … Someone would extend their hand to offer a handshake … As a gesture of Friendship and their attitude was … ” What can I do for you ? “ Today when someone extends their hand - it usually is palm up and their attitude is … ” What can you do for me ? “ As I get older - this just turns me off - I have no time for folks like that.

I think it is a great tool for small business - say you are expecting payment by mail & you are waiting around to see if it is coming in the mail that day …. With this free service you have an image of the mail before it is delivered and you send your customer proof that the check is not in the mail. Jim

This is a free service offered by the USPS for all mail and packages delivered to you - you get a daily update of the mail coming to you thru images sent for free …. I picked up a vehicle yesterday that the owner had been waiting on a title to come in the mail for a long time - the Buyer understandably wanted to wait on the title before paying in full. The Buyer contacted me early yesterday morning and told me the title would be in that days mail … So I called the Seller & he told me he has this free service from USPS and received an email of daily mail delivery and there was an image of the DMV letter. Here is a link on how to sign up: @ https://www.usps.com/manage/informed-delivery.htm I timed pick up late in the day to coincide with his late afternoon regular mail delivery. The title was “ in the mail “ ! So I loaded up & was on my way. Jim

Bob Goodyear ST Endurance 10 ply from Discount Tire/America’s Tire with free replacement road hazard for life of tread. No pro rating - free replacement if road hazard renders tire non repairable. Free rotation & balance. That is what I run on my aluminum custom enclosed car hauler. Loaded late this afternoon in Indiana. Headed to Florida.

You chose the two shops. Jim

I notice in your profile you are located in Heath Springs, South Carolina. The odds of a enclosed hauler who is an owner/ooerator of an actual business and insured being available any where near that area is slim. For some areas of the Country Winter has arrived and winter weather driving conditions are in effect - which makes scheduling transport along certain routes not possible. If you do make a trade … Focus on getting your car delivered to you - that may not be until next Spring. Jim

My advice regarding the question asked in the title of this thread: ” Selling or Sell “ implies the transaction is not completed . As a Seller if it concerns you how the vehicle is going to leave your property … then you can stipulate terms and conditions to the sale agreement that have to be complied with for the vehicle to leave your property. I have been transporting vehicles since 2006 and no Seller I know of has ever done that. ” Sold “ implies the sale is “ complete “ and the vehicle has been paid for in full and legal ownership has transferred to a new owner. You no longer own the vehicle. You have no legal right to demand any conditions for the vehicle to leave your property. Sellers contact me every day seeking transport quotes for vehicles they are selling on behalf of prospective Buyers. 90% of the time a prospective Buyer is seeking assistance from the Seller to buy their vehicle and they cannot afford it and usually live at least 2000 miles away. I tell Sellers to focus on the Sale. Offer free storage with full payment until the prospective Buyer can make their own arrangements to pick up the vehicle. Set a time limit you are comfortable limit with the free storage offer. Make it expressly clear as the Seller you are not responsible for damage or loss with free storage. Never charge for storage. You are liable for damage or loss if you receive compensation and the risk isn’t worth it. If the vehicle is to be transported have it on a public road or meet the hauler at a suitable parking area. Do not let a hauler onto your property to load or unload. If something happens while loading or unloading on your property - you may find yourself mitigating a nuisance lawsuit. Take a walk around video and/or pictures of your vehicle before it is loaded. Do not offer or aid the hauler in any manner - you do not want to be held responsible in the event of damage or loss during transport. Why do I offer this advice ? Most folks “ think with their wallet “. They view transport as a Good and not a Service. They expect their vehicle to arrive in the condition it left in for a price that doesn’t even cover equipment operating expenses required. You are selling a vehicle. That should never include transport. Jim

How exactly did you determine the vehicle is a 1955 Chevy ? Have you tried the deciphering the vin number on a 1955 Chevy truck forum ? What condition is it in ? Before you start down the road of trying to gather paperwork you need to positively identify what is that you have and what the actual condition is. Jim

Back on topic …. My research shows the patent that I posted was not for the ski apparatus on The Haunted Snowmobile. Jim

Walt I can’t share where this is headed to until it is delivered but it will be on public display. Jim

The 10 year anniversary of The Haunted Snowmobile has brought me previously unknown historical information. Otto Bufe of Grand Marais, Michigan patented the “ motor sleigh “ which is The Haunted Snowmobile. The document above is a receipt for $45 which was the second payment to his patent representative in Washington, DC. Jim

Does the Seller have a smart phone ? Do you have a smart phone ? Do a live video chat in real time of the vehicle using technology to answer any questions you may have. Jim

Mark Atkins & The Richmond Boyz fueled up the T and took it out to play in the snow - even made a few “ mail deliveries “ … The Model T Haunted Snowmobile was featured on the cover of ” The Vintage Ford “ along with an article detailing my experience transporting it and the strange things that started happening once it inside the museum. At the end of this video - you can see the gas tank mounted high on the rear of the wood body which had a copper fuel line connecting it to the engine: @ Jim
