'67 Engine Lid

[Jeannot]

I am looking for a deck lid for my '67. As I shall be welding in some air vents I am not overly concerned about the condition. (Within reason of course.) In the very near future I may be in the market for front and rear bumpers for this car as well.

I have 2 in great shape but I do not think you want to pay to have it shipped that far.

Yes, the shipping cost from N.C. to Vancouver BC would be a bit steep. I was hopping to find a deck lid a little closer to home. Finding one in Seattle or Portland would make for a good excuse for taking a long weekend. Oh well, if I am unable to soon find one closer to home I may just have to enquire about the shipping. Would you mind emailing me what you have in mind for a fair price? Thanks.

It is only going to cost me $20 in gas to go get one out of storage. Being I would not need it anymore ,plus the cost of shippig, I would say $20 plus packing and shipping to you. I guess should kep atleast one of them for the future.

[Jeannot]

Thanks. $20USD seems rather fair. Would you have any idea (a rough ballpark) on what you think the packing and shipping costs would amount to?

[Jeannot]

I haven't yet been able to find a deck lid closer to home. I will measure and weigh mine in order to get a good guesstimate from UPS. I need a deck lid sooner as opposed to later so I shall be happy to take yours at the proffered $20USD plus packaging and shipping.

Thanks,

VW911,

Hi there. I am assuming that your '67 deck lid is approx 38 x 30 in length and width and about 6 inches or so deep. I weighed the deck lid off of my '72SB. If the bathroom scale is close it is somewhere around 10 1/2 - 11 lbs. I am unable to use the UPS Quick Cost Calculator (web page) as I need to be able to plug both your city and postal code in (as well as mine). This doesn't account for your packaging costs either. Let me know. Thanks.

Cheers,
