Re: [AMC-List] Shipping the Hood

[JOE FULTON <piper_pa20@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

Well, don't laugh but I have used Greyhound package
express to ship one Gremlin door and two Rambler
Classic fenders to separate buyers in the last few
months.   All items arrived OK, but I had to do the
work to package them correctly.  I used hot water pipe
insulation foam for all the sharp edges and covered
the flat surfaces with cardboard bound by copious
amounts of packing tape or duct tape.  Gonna be
shipping a Javelin door this week the same way.  

I think a Gremlin hood will meet the dimension limits
of Greyhound, but to be sure, go to their website and
check the info there.  The buyer has to be willing to
pick up the item at the arriving terminal.

I have used DHL, which has more generous dimension
limits to ship a front clip which was about seven feet
long, packaged.  It was more of a hassle (finding a
terminal etc.) but the package arrived safely.
