Enclosed Vintage Car Transport from Birmingham to Santa Rosa

A private collector from Birmingham needed to safely transport a vintage roadster across the country to Santa Rosa, CA. Due to the vehicle's high value and pristine condition, enclosed transport was essential to protect it from weather, road debris, and exposure.

Challenge

Classic cars demand extra attention — and this one was no exception. The client was particularly concerned about potential paint damage, loading ramp angles, and real-time visibility throughout the 2,380-mile trip. It also had to arrive within a specific delivery window for a regional car show in Santa Rosa.

Solution

A1 Auto Transport coordinated an enclosed carrier with a hydraulic liftgate and low-clearance capabilities — ideal for classic vehicles. Real-time GPS tracking and direct driver communication were enabled from start to finish. The vehicle was picked up directly from the customer’s garage in Birmingham and delivered safely curbside in Santa Rosa within 6 days, meeting the client’s deadline.
