914World.com _ FS/WTB: 914 Parts _ WTB: Engine Lids w/o Grills

A 1st - I’ve got a nice stock of grills but no lids.

If you have bare lids collecting dust, I’m in the market. Shipping is expensive, so being in the SF Bay Area a plus. Thanks

If you happen to have a damaged grill, I need two 6” pieces of grill. If not now please keep me in mind in case you have something for me in the future. Thanks and sorry only a first draft on the lid. It is already cut but decided to use my stock one instead.

A little touch up and paint on the outside.

If you can use the black one maybe we can work something out.

If you get desperate...I have one in CT. You already got the grill out of it.

Thanks - I may need it later.

What is the cost of shipping like on these lids? How are they normally packed? I have 6 or 7 lids here, and would be interested in having 2 converted lids come back.

I shipped Sergio a lid and grill combo from Georgia to California a month or so ago, and I think it cost about $55 going UPS Ground. In order to pack it, I broke down a U-Haul garment box and custom made a flatter box ....so to speak. I'm sure shipping costs will vary, especially if you're shipping across the border.

Craig,

Thanks for providing your "on the spot" cost.

I'll contact Dave via PM - with that many lids, putting them on a pallet and singing a truck shipper might be more cost effective.

With Yellow Freight declaring bankruptcy, shipping rates are predicted to go up even more.

I have 6-8 but I’m in east TN

I have one. Los Angeles county.

Thanks, I'll keep you in mind. Currently, shipping is an issue.
