Default Vehicle transporting in Vic?

I need to pickup my "new" Javelin (Mustang-sized vehicle) from Somerville in the next few weeks, but problems include:
1. Oncall and out-of-hours work every weekend for a month.
2. Ute playing up
3. 4hours driving time each way
.. so I'm thinking of organising someone to transport. The car is a resto job so I don't need covered transport and whanot, but don't want some yahoo who will dent every panel. Any suggestions on who to call?

Thanks,
Rod.

I had Toll transport my car interstate last year. They did a pretty good job. However, that was my daily driver so I dont know how well they handle resto cars.

Ive used TNT a few times to transport vehicles interstate.

Both have been very low and have turned up no probs, you should find someone to do it cheaper though than toll or tnt since its not that far.
