This is one big Box!!!!!!!!! - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

**Classic Heartbeat** · 06-21-2003, 01:28 AM

With all of the discussion on the boards about who will ship what where and who wont. I thought that I would show you guys a box that I built loaded full of parts going to Hawii. (Yes that is a complete cab inside the box, along with a new hood, rear stepside fenders, and other large items. Sometime you got to do what you got to do to service the people who need your products!! I don't try to come up with reasons not to do something, rather I try to come up with solutions...

dayum...now you gotta go broke stuffing that with packing peanuts!

cheyenneman · 06-21-2003, 04:02 AM

Can you give us a ballpark figure on what it cost to ship that over there? It had to be alot.

Steven Sellers · 06-21-2003, 09:37 AM

Wow, I had to pay 200.00 just to have an AX15 tranny shipped there from Fresno, so I dont think I wanna know the price on that. Thats the way to get and keep busines though

**Classic Heartbeat** · 06-21-2003, 10:26 AM

Not too sure on the cost yet, because both the order and size of the box grew since the origanal order. I can tell you it will be more than $200.00..LOL I am still waiting for 2 pieces to come in befor I can close the box up, take it down to the truck stop and weigh it, and then I can call the shippers to get the cost.... WES www.ClassicHeartbeat.com

cojnit · 06-21-2003, 10:57 AM

Wes,

you might have been better off going down to matson and getting a small container!!!

I used to shipstuff back and forth from hawaii all the time (cause that is where I am from) used to cost us like 500 bucks for a G container. that would definately have held all of the stuff.

does this stuff happen to be going to you Jay-Dawg??

**Classic Heartbeat** · 06-21-2003, 12:26 PM

I am not sure what his board name is. I have 4 customers in Hawii, and board names would throw more confusion in the mix...LOL I did think of the container aspect of it and with pickup and delivery of the container itself the price went up. This way I take it up to Tacoma to the shipping company and hopefully save the customer some money.... WES www.ClassicHeartbeat.com

sweet n rare67 · 06-21-2003, 01:39 PM

Hey can you build me a box and ship me to hawaii?

70 CST 4X4 · 06-21-2003, 02:41 PM

Nice job.

*dtlilly* · 06-21-2003, 02:54 PM

Where there's a will, there's a way. Good job Wes.

PanelDeland · 06-21-2003, 03:33 PM

Gosh WES, I didn't know you could put a whole truck in a box that small.Guess if you pack it inside itself it shrinks.

stllookn · 06-21-2003, 04:04 PM

You could probably compact it into a smaller box than that but I am not sure how long it would take to get all the dents out...LOL!
