wL<3bass Posted July 29, 2008 Report Posted July 29, 2008 (edited) I need a hardtop for my car b/c its a convertible...so I finally find one but it's in Reno....so the guy says call for a shipping quote I do and it will cost $750 :censored: just to ship it b/c it weighs 150lbs and is in shipping 300 class.....wow what a rip off seriously it would cost more to ship it then it costs...... So I'm gonna sell either my car or my car and all my audio equipment...b/c these 8 8s are gonna shred this softtop, my single 12" CVR was starting to make the seams rip and it was in the trunk not the backseat... So I dunno what I'm going to do I can't find anything for my car b/c its rare and they dont make any of the parts for it anymore.... My conclusion everything that can go wrong will and expect it...1991 Mercury Capri FTL! :censored: :censored: :censored: :censored: :censored: :censored: :censored: :censored: :censored: :censored: :censored: Edited July 29, 2008 by wL<3bass Quote Vehicle: 1997 S10 Blazer 4dr 4X4 Exterior: Rear End Bagged, Black Grill, Lifted 2" Amplifiers: Rockford Fosgate T8004 & T10001bd Batteries: 2 Stinger SPV35, Kinetik HC2400 Electrical: Big 3, DC Power 290amp Alternator w/ MLA at 15.5v Enclosure: 4.2 ft³ @ 33Hz 84sq.in. of port (20sq.in. per cube) Headunit: Eclipse CD3200 w/ 80G iPod Mids/Highs: Rockford T152s (a-pillars), Rockford T162s (doors) Subwoofers: 1 15" Fi BL Fully Loaded Wire: All 1/0g Kicker Hyperflex My YouTube Videos My Fiberglass A-Pillar Build My "Seamless" Looking Box Build My DD1508 T-Line Bandpass Build "Seamless" w/ Acrylic Windows (for '05 TrailBlazer) My Stealth 8" Fiberglass Build (for '05 TrailBlazer) My Build For A Friend's '08 Cobalt 15" BL Sealed Off From The Trunk My feedback/references...
wL<3bass Posted July 29, 2008 Author Report Posted July 29, 2008 Shipping this Hardtop via Yellow Freight terminal to terminal from Reno, Nv. to Keyser WV. will be 750.00. Sorry..... but this is best price I could find. If you would like to look around for a better price this item weighs approx 150 lbs. and the shipping class is 300. Please give me a call or contact me by email if you have any questions. Thats what the guy said so from reno to 26726 do any of you think you can find me a better shipping price?

wL<3bass Posted July 29, 2008 Author Report Posted July 29, 2008 Would driving there and picking it up be cheaper? Heh. Nope I don't have a truck...I doubt this car would make it there I wouldn't trust it and gas @ $4.xx a gallon I don't think so. :mad: Quote Vehicle: 1997 S10 Blazer 4dr 4X4 Exterior: Rear End Bagged, Black Grill, Lifted 2" Amplifiers: Rockford Fosgate T8004 & T10001bd Batteries: 2 Stinger SPV35, Kinetik HC2400 Electrical: Big 3, DC Power 290amp Alternator w/ MLA at 15.5v Enclosure: 4.2 ft³ @ 33Hz 84sq.in. of port (20sq.in. per cube) Headunit: Eclipse CD3200 w/ 80G iPod Mids/Highs: Rockford T152s (a-pillars), Rockford T162s (doors) Subwoofers: 1 15" Fi BL Fully Loaded Wire: All 1/0g Kicker Hyperflex My YouTube Videos My Fiberglass A-Pillar Build My "Seamless" Looking Box Build My DD1508 T-Line Bandpass Build "Seamless" w/ Acrylic Windows (for '05 TrailBlazer) My Stealth 8" Fiberglass Build (for '05 TrailBlazer) My Build For A Friend's '08 Cobalt 15" BL Sealed Off From The Trunk My feedback/references...
