Shipping is killer as you found out. I'd say $1200 is probably the norm. Those things aren't easy to move around when you're by yourself.

I knew a guy that use to haul them, would stand them up on end and carry 10-12 of them on a flat bed to sell back East.

He no longer does that however since the demand is no longer there.

I understand your dilema though. I lived in Ohio and I just simply traveled out west on my own to grab rust free vehicles. It's either that or ship. Either way it costs money. I eventually just moved out here to save me all the headaches,,,lol.
