I am guessing it can only be done via a truck. Has anyone ever done this? Or bought one themselves? How was it shipped? Pricing etc? I have no way to lug this hood some where to get a price quote and just trying to get a ball park. Thanks CJ

I have shipped a hood to BC Canada before. It had to be sent truck freight. I made a wood boxed in frame. After the hood was in place, I used expandable foam in bags on all 4 corners to secure. It got there fine.

 

I had one shipped to me like this once as well.

 

best way to do it really.

Where is it coming from and where is it going?

 

What kind of hood is it?

 

I would suggest framing it. It seen plenty of hood damage in my lifetime of the body industry, even just being shipped 10 miles or less.

 

 

^^ Agreed, both of mine had a chip off of at least one corner because of shipping. They a only had it in a box with foam on the nose of the hood and the back two corners. The painter fix them for me for free so it wasn't that bad.
