Grundy will do it, and there are others too.

You might also be able to arrange insurance through your chosen transport 
company.   The owner of CARS UK is an acquaintence of mine; his company is 
the largest speciality car shipping company in Europe.   They handle all the 
overseas traffic for Pebble Beach, Monterey, and from the USA to Europe for 
Le Mans Classic, Mille Miglia, Goodwood etc.   His name is Richard Clark, and 
his company is CARS (Classic Auto Relocation Service).

I would venture to guess that his shipping service might be more expensive 
than the budget, cut-rate, fly- (or sail-)by-night operations.   But they   
may also be able to offer painless one-stop shopping that would handle all 
the transportation, customs, and insurance issues for you.
