Ed Coffman is an unknown quantity at this point
Check with these guys. They disassembled, shipped and reassembled a skymaster I sold to Yap, in Micronesia several years ago. I thought their price was pretty reasonable.

Update: Aircraft successfully moved. I had 35 North Aviation do the move...they happened to have a trailer in Texas already so it turned out to be a great event. Excellent quote and their guy was really a pro. The most difficult part was the wide stance of the aircraft...center to center of the wheels is right at the legal road width limit so it rode the gunnels so to speak all the way.

I think you can actually turn the main gear outside in. I am pretty sure the mains can be remounted to the inside of the spring gear legs and that would allow legal widths

I suggested this (glad to know I wasn't too far off base) but they didn't ultimately need to do it. Good tip for the future though as I think it would have simplified things a lot.
