My car was never the same

Maybe this was concidence, but I bought my 1988 9000T with about 110K on it. I put another 2,000 miles on it after a year before moving and having it shipped.
The shipping took a long time, and it wouldn't start after they took it off the truck. Turned out the alternator was shot. I replaced that, and then shortly afterwards little things started falling off-knobs, the headliner, etc...then the exhaust pipe broke.
There were other factors at play, particularly the age of the car. But that car really started to fall apart after it was shipped, and I've always suspected that it got jostled around or otherwise mistreated in transport.
So be careful and know you're getting a reputable company. I got whomever my company picked and have regretted it.
