best way to ship bucket seats?
i got a quote from FedEx at over $100 per seat and a quote from greyhound at around $75 per seat to go from indiana to NJ. is there a cheeper way? i didn't think it would be that much.

I just shipped a pair of buckets from Alabama to New Mexico via FedEx for $75. The best way to box is,take the tracks off,fold the seat down and box them. They're not that big if you fit the box tight around the seats. One bucket is appox. 45#'s and the other bucket with the tracks boxed with it is appox. 60#'s. I have an account with FedEx and I would advise anybody who ships regularly do the same thing. All you have to do is go to FedEx online and fill out the form. It's tied to a credit card and the shipping labels can be done online. It's the slickest way to ship and much faster than UPS. I can send a package from Alabama to NY in two days.

I've shipped a couple sets in computer boxes I got out of the recycle bin at work. I unbolted the seat backs from the seat bottoms, put the seat bottom in first and the seat back on top of that. These were 1966-68 non-head rest seats, but if they had them I would have put those in a smaller box to ship that way.
Eric, did you see Douglas's parts wanted ad for buckets to use in his 1969 Cutlass? Do you have a second set available? John
