914World.com _ 914World Garage _ OT: Need hood and fenders transported: CO to SF Bay

Posted by: neo914-6 Mar 27 2007, 08:54 PM

They are for a mid-size Mercedes, 300E

Let me know if / when you can do this and how much $

Posted by: Brew Mar 27 2007, 09:03 PM

What do you need done exactly, and where in CO? I'd be glad to help if I can.

Posted by: johnlush Mar 27 2007, 10:14 PM

Kinda depends on where in CO and what your schedule is. I'm planning a trip to the SJ area to pick up my car sometime this spring - dependent on the body shop schedule. I would have room for sure and would be glad to help for gas money.

They are located in Boulder, CO.

If you are certain you are available "soon" and know what you want for the service let me know. The parts may not be available unless I purchase them now.

Thanks!

Hey Ferg or Brew,

Grey Hound is actually great and cheap for just those kind of parts. I had a full roll cage and 4 fender flares delivered for 75 bucks!

Good Luck...

agree.gif That's the way to go, unless Lush is coming down to Denver betwixt now and the time he leaves.

I rarely get north of south Denver. Too flat.

laugh.gif You Colorado guys...

We'll see if we can work something out for Felix.

Hey Felix, John, Ferg...

How about this plan:

John, if you're the transport mechanism in May, then Felix can have Ferg pick up the doors, and if Ferg can store them for a bit, I can get them up to Wyoming to John. In fact, we could do a 914 run up to the windy state or something. But I can commit to getting them up to John's place.

Posted by: johnlush Mar 29 2007, 10:47 AM

Sounds perfect to me!

And Felix can drop by the shop where my car is in SJ and encourage them to get it ready!

Never underestimate the collective power of car nutz.

Posted by: Ferg Mar 29 2007, 02:39 PM

Felix,

If that is the plan, PM me where and when to pick them up in boulder. Will they fit in a Xterra? If not I'll figure it out, I may be able to borrow a truck.

Guys,

the parts are a hood 50"x53" and two fenders 50"x30". Let me know if you can fit these.

Thanks!

No problem on my part.

John

Posted by: Gint Apr 2 2007, 07:38 AM

I can toss that stuff in the back of my truck, No sweat...

So John, you're not heading out with the stuff until May?

Posted by: johnlush Apr 2 2007, 08:35 AM

Mike, I'm at the mercy of the body shop's schedule. But you're welcome to bring it up here any time.

Car related trip or work? I have a pair of calipers at Eric's that could be picked up if you see him, providing they are ready then. I'll be passing through SLC too so if there is anything I can deliver/pickup that would save you a trip...

Mike,

Glad you can think about these things after the jackstand incident. It got me thinking more about my old stands so now I have so much supports that I can't get to things... blink.gif
