Just bought a nice one on Ebay

Well- in all seriousness- shipping things is not new to me: I was a full time autoparts ebayer for 4 years- however, I'm not sure what carrier I would use to ship a complete door..? I'm not sure that even UPS would carry it because of the weight/dimension etc. It would need to go truck freight I assume.

Now, IF you want to make all the arrangments from where you are- I'll unbolt the doors for you, weigh them etc- and I don't mind doing the leg work to the terminal and I'll wrap them in plastic. You'll need to find and contact a shipper local to me, pay them etc. I will bring the doors to them and see them off.

Up to you bro- let me know.

 

Let me get some info, I'll get back to you.

It would probably be cheaper to ship both on one palet, might keep the shipping in the $100-150 range.

 

Check with UPS truck freight- its a trucking interest that UPS acquired recently... I just found out that my rollbar kit is coming from Summit via this method. Their number is 8003337400. There is a terminal very close to me, as it turns out.

 

I'd like to be...

 

Its on my to do list for Tuesday morning.

I've had truck freight shipped here before, 20 high dollar network switches on a palet. No weight to them, just the sheer number of them. All probably weighed about the same as one door.

 

cool- let me know how it goes. check this out: I bought another mav tonight, I just got home... my wife is ready to give me a shoe in the nads- I have bought 3 mavericks in the last month, LOL Between the slicks sticking way the hell out and the...interesting...interior, it looks like it rolled right out of the disco era- I love it, lol.

 

Congrats, you are offically addicted. I've bought 8 of them in the last 2 years and always on the prowl for more.

What's the V.I.N. on that car? Almost looks like you may have yourself a '73-'75 Grabber. The bumpers are definately not original. The dash is a glove box dash with a package tray someone put there. Has the round openings behind the front kick panels, so it's at least a '73.

 

It IS!! It was a 74 that got the small bumper/valence/moulding treatment. I'll post the vin in a while after the kids go to bed and I can go out to the garage.

I paid $1600 for it as you see it, sans motor.

 

What is the combo again? I thought that thing would be flying by now! Hey, I know the head above water game very well...

lol

 

I don't really want to highjack the thread (maybe sidetrack it a little bit). I am now leaning towards a high compression 427W with TFS "R" heads with a solid roller cam. I was going to have some 1 7/8" headers built for it but with T.L.'s expert advice I think I am going to have some 1 1/4" headers fabbed up!

Got a little sidetracked for some time but am becoming more ambitious now.

 

how about T.L. and FredH go have a big bowl of shut the F*** up



both of whom screw up threads ALL the time. im sure i am not the only one who wants to say this...

im sorry if this gets locked , just needed to get that off of my chest.

i love this board , just dont like A$$ holes arguring

 

Sometimes?...yes. "ALL the time"?... hardly.

I am sure you are correct.

I hope you feel better now.

 

Hey Mad Max Mav I may be interested in those seats in that mav you just picked up with the B&M shifter and black and gray paint job if you want to sell them?
