Default HELP with shipping this

http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eB...m=270301303266

is there an way i could have this shipped
would it be good to have this guy take it apart or should i get it crated or something like that thanks guys

what do you think shipping cost would be from NJ to WI

i ask because it has been sitting untouched since for an while

i am hopeing* i don't get it but if i do cool gives me an winter project ie getting the rest of the parts (mom will kill me if i do, she would not on an Vette ie because you can drive one of those lol)

*cant find correct spelling at time of post

You can get it shipped freight for pretty cheap. I had a transmission shipped to me on a pallet for about $80. I can't think of the company, but I just do a search for freight shipping companies on google.

FedEx freight might ship that. I had them ship a stock C5 hood for me and the price was very reasonable. You'll of course have to have it crated so the seller would have to help you out there.

Well this isn't English class anyway so no worries...

Try NEMF ...New England Motor Freight

I shipped an 1100 lb commercial stand on lawnmower from Tennessee to Maine for $300.00...

Anyway may be a valuable resource for you in the future...

Bubba.
