yellowdatsun Posted January 24, 2008 Report Share Posted January 24, 2008 I have a few things that could use a new home. I'd like to say that I *really* don't feel like shipping these things. If you want to come get them, I'm in Phoenix, AZ. It would be possible to meet someone halfway maybe. As for price, not sure, maybe $75 each? NOS right front fender for a 520 pickup. I also have both doors, NOS, although one has 2 dings in the window surround at the top, like it was hit with a .22 or ball peen hammer. Link to comment

drastic520 Posted January 24, 2008 Report Share Posted January 24, 2008 man i can reeeeeeeeeeeealy use that fender. let me know if you change your mind about shipping. Link to comment
yellowdatsun Posted January 24, 2008 Author Report Share Posted January 24, 2008 The thing that stinks about trying to ship this stuff is trying to box it up, and transport it to the local shipping store. If your willing to pay for the box and shipping, I'm willing to look into it. Unfortunately I can't give you a shipping estimate till it's all packaged up. Link to comment

yellowdatsun Posted January 26, 2008 Author Report Share Posted January 26, 2008 Yep, one of the reasons I hate shipping big stuff like that, prices are CRAZY! About the biggest piece you can ship somewhat cost affective is a bumper. But even with those, you almost double your purchase price. I have NOS bed sides here as well, I'd hate to see what those would cost to ship! Good thing I'm keeping those for myself. Link to comment
drastic520 Posted January 26, 2008 Report Share Posted January 26, 2008 ive heard grayhound does shippng too. never done it tho. Link to comment
yellowdatsun Posted January 27, 2008 Author Report Share Posted January 27, 2008 I've heard that to, but also never tried it. You can do FedEx freight also, it's cheaper, but a PITA. You have to drop the stuff off at their shipping warehouse on the one end, and pick it up at their warehouse on the other. Plus, if it's not crated, it will get crushed. I've received stuff freight before, and the box was mutilated. Link to comment
drastic520 Posted January 28, 2008 Report Share Posted January 28, 2008 yeah they tear things up. im gonna do some more searching on this and if its not sold yet then we talk. i may have to call in some favors from some people in the shipping field!!!! Link to comment
tnip Posted February 1, 2008 Report Share Posted February 1, 2008 fwiw i've used greyhound to ship a few times... always worked just fine. never shipped anything too difficult, but did send a huge box that was quite heavy from southern colorado to atlanta... so maybe 800 miles shorter trip than the fender would make from phoenix to tampa... but it was pretty cheap. .. if i had to put numbers in... i'd guess the box was like 24" cubed... weighing.. like 40lbs or more... i wanna say it was only like 75 or 80 bucks... i know it was under 100. as far as the sizes, don't quote me... but it doesn't really matter cause they ship by weight and distance, not size... as long as it fits in the cargo hold of a bus. the only issue is that there is the possibility that your cargo will be left behind to make room for passengers luggage... and that could leave it stuck somewhere indefinately. again, don't quote me, this was over a year ago... anyway, i put my box on the bus in colorado and then flew out like 4 days later, then went and picked it up at the bus depot like 2-2.5 weeks after i had sent it. i would def reccomend using it to ship large items.

Rusty Posted February 1, 2008 Report Share Posted February 1, 2008 just for the record: New old stock (abbreviated NOS) refers to merchandise being offered for sale which was manufactured long ago but that has never been used. Such merchandise may not be produced anymore, and the new old stock may represent the only market source of a particular item at the present time. Link to comment
yellowdatsun Posted February 2, 2008 Author Report Share Posted February 2, 2008 Yep, all mine is NOS. Dirty, and may have a tiny but of surface rust in spots since it's been outside, but none of the panels have ever been used. The front fender even has the manufacturing tab in the headlight bucket, which would have to be cut off in order for someone to use it. Link to comment
