Found a extra hard top how could I ship it to me?

I am wanting to make a windowless hardtop but dont want to cut mine so I want another. There was an image of a cool one shown here a few months back I would like to copy if I can find that post.
I found one but he wants pick up only. Is there a good service who I might talk him into letting me use?
If yes how would it be packaged?
If anyone knows of one in North Texas I would love to know about it.
Thanks PG

For making that open side and back hardtop would a single wall or a double work better?
I have a single never seen a double dont really know the differences.
Thanks PG

All I know is don't cut up a single they are much rarer than the double wall.

I too would like to know the answer. When I finally find a single wall top I don't want location keeping me from getting it.

Try using uship.com. Could get lucky. A shipper might be coming through your area and will ship the top as supplemental to a load already being shipped. I used this site when I had my K5 shipped.

I'd start driving. Any shipping company isn't going to know what they are handling and will F it up either loading it, securing it, or unloading it or all of the above.

Crazy idea but try a relay with members on here. Each takes it some miles in the right direction and helps load for the next leg. Our own Ididerod.
I think the top is in Ohio so ~1200 miles?

If it was within 300miles or so and you have access to to a trailer i'd wake up real early some saturday and make a road trip out of it

i like road trips cause you never can tell what you can find along the way that you didn't plan on
