Mostly surface rust with some pitting on the mounts, if I remember right. I will post more pics tomorrow.

Will probably be in North Jersey later this month to visit friends, maybe meet half way. I'll let you know.

ORANGBLAZ · 05-31-2011, 02:57 PM

The bases are very solid, and should clean up nicely.

any idea how much to ship to 91902??? San Diego, CA.

ORANGBLAZ · 05-31-2011, 09:30 PM

gochoa, I imagine that it is too bulky to ship Greyhound, so I will try to get a quote from some common carriers tomorrow.

gochoa · 06-01-2011, 12:34 AM

thank ORANGBLAZ, worth a shot...

ORANGBLAZ · 06-01-2011, 08:26 AM

gochoa - Yellow/ Roadway came in the lowest @ $217

**Gary 70 Jimmy** · 06-01-2011, 08:32 AM

I shipped one throw grayhound for less then $100.00 but they might want you to put bubble rap all around it.

Thanks for the info! I'll check it out.

ORANGBLAZ · 06-05-2011, 10:46 AM

Greyhound quoted $64 on-line, but they only ask for longest dimension. Think it may be a little more if they see the actual part (?)

gochoa · 06-06-2011, 01:00 PM

Orangblaz, thanks for checking, but I am afraid you are correct, once they see they might want more. Hopefully i haven't inconvinced you too much, I'm going to have to pass.

wiggins · 06-06-2011, 03:05 PM

If you are positive its an original 67-72 I'll take it to 75956 or nearest Greyhound would be Beaumont, Tx. I have recieved entire truck seats through greyhound for $70-$100 so they should take the bar

I have two rollbars, one came out of my current '72 K5 (bought in 1990) and the other from a '72 I parted out several years ago. The bases of the main hoop bolt to the floor behind the door jambs, and the supports bolt onto the rear wheel tubs, and they are made of 1 3/4" heavy wall tubing. I assume that these were dealer installed as I have never seen them on a SPID(maybe a more knowledgeable member could chime in...

)
I'll take it to Greyhound tomorrow to get a quote.
Thanks.

wiggins · 06-06-2011, 06:39 PM

sounds good

47thriftmaster · 06-06-2011, 10:47 PM

If you have two of them, is the other for sale also? If so or if this one gets to me, can you check shipping to 28327 or I think the nearest grey hound is in either Fayetteville, NC or Raleigh, NC. Thanks

ORANGBLAZ · 06-07-2011, 06:56 PM

Sorry guys. Something came up so didn't make it over to Greyhound, will try again tomorrow.

I'm most likely gonna keep one for my truck. If wiggins decides that the shipping is too much, you're next in line.
Thanks.

The dimensions fit within the limits for Greyhound, but unfortunately the closest Greyhound terminal is over an hour away. The good news is that Trailways ships for Greyhound, and there is one nearby. When I called, I spoke with a very nice lady who suggested I stop in and measure the compartment on the bus just to be sure (she thought that it may be smaller than Greyhound). Plenty of room!
Long story short, $65 to Beaumont ($70 if insured for $200)
