Long story short, I found a bonnet for the Devin. It's in Oregon and I'm in Ohio. This is literally the only one in the world not installed on 1 of the 5 other existing cars, and my car, number 6, is missing the piece. It's way too rare, important, irreplaceable to trust to some clown. So, who wants to help get it from Oregon to Ohio? I can't just up and leave, being the challenge is soon and every other moment is packed with work for customers that needs done before the challenge.
I'm pretty confident it would sit right in the back of a fullsize truck or van. Car is 60" wide and the bonnet should be around 48-54" long and under 28" tall. I'm not afraid to pay for help, and I trust you guys with something this important way more than I trust reviews on shippers, especially knowing they're always looking to take on more items to maximize profit. Plus, the cheaper the better because the price keeps the car below $2020 since that's a possible goal here.
Unfortunately dads trip west is not going that far north after the challenge, or id probably be able to talk him into loading it in the motorhome and dropping it off.

In reply to Patrick :
Probably not the timeframe you're looking for, but I have a cousin in Montana who's supposed to head to IL next summer to pick up a gigantic dollhouse(and possibly a chair) from me. No idea what they're driving, but we discussed that it needed to have plenty of room.

I can probably get you from il to oh, as my in laws live in Pittsburgh and we head that way frequently.
Well, lucky you sir. I happen to live in Bend,OR. I’m on vacation in Cancun now, but I’m back in 7 days. I can store it in my garage for you as long as you need. My number (text me, no cell sig here, but do have WiFi) is nine seven uno. Two cinco cinco. Tres tres two four.
That might be the tequila talking and lack of sleep (got in today), but I’m serious about helping.
That's a start. Will get hold of you
