I bought my Silver/Black 2001 Stook from Frank Kent Motors of Fort Worth, TX at MSRP ($32,740) and had it shipped the 2,200 miles to my house (it arreved three weeks ago). New Stooks are selling here for $44,950. I got my contact with Frank Kent Motors through this site. Frank Kent is highly recommended, very professional, and easy to work with. Contact Doug Martin, Assistant Manager, at Frank Kent at 800-553-2111. He says he presently has several new 2001's on the lot.
I initially tried to get my car shipped through intercity lines (recommended on this site), but they couldn't ship from Fort Worth to Bremerton, WA. So I contacted a car-shipping broker through the Internet at http://www.moving.com. The broker contracted a trucker who actually carried my Stook. Although, the truck was enclosed, my Stook was loaded under a 1930 Chrysler in junk condition. My Stook was not covered and significant slabs of rust, debris, and some oil fell from the Chrysler and fell on my car. Fortunately, no damage was done, however it could have. Be very careful who you contract with to ship your car.
