Great advice on shipping parts...

During my search for someone to move a 65 442 parts car from Pa, I found some great data on a car forum.

It may not work for my entire car, but it looks like a great way to ship some other large items, such as an engine, transmission, bumpers, etc...

Here's the posting:

If you're both willing to work around it... you need to check with Fastenal's about their shipping services (they call it Third Party Logistics). If you can securely strap it to a pallet, you can ship pretty much whatever from one store location to another, and the charge is typically $100.

If you fill out the form, you'll get an email back telling you what store you can take it to, and which store they will be able to deliver it to, and what the rate will be. On items I've shipped (like a set of corvette wheels) or items I've priced (like a pair of "C" head and a torker intake) the charge was $100. You don't even have to box the stuff, as long as it will ride securely on the pallet.

Hope someone finds it helpful.
