Ship Hood
Go by Greyhound if possible. My experience was great both cost and handling.

Go to a body shop and get a hood box.

Yep! I did that once with two rear housing. Worked great!

I agree that Greyhound is a very cost effective way to ship body panels and other large items. May take a little longer but I've had good experience.

I also agree to head to a body shop and see if you can't find a hood box.

I sent packard grills and fenders via Greyhound last year with no problems. I did some minimal crating.
