Good man J. This is one reason I like our community here is that people are willing to go a little farther the help each other out. Too bad that it is hard to figure out on ebay who that is, whether it is a fellow Olds enthusiast or just a dealer making a buck.

Obviously wood is heavy so that is unfortunate, but at least the items won't get smashed now. The quote on USPS.com for shipping the crate is 60 bucks . It may or may not be an extra 5 bucks because it is wood and not cArdboard, but I don't know yet. So 85 bucks should cover everything. I understand that it doesn't sound too appealing now. So let me know if you still want to do it. I figured on having this problem and that is why I don't ever have the heart to charge fellow Oldsmobilers for parts they need.
