Will anyone be near Palm Deserrt California to pick up two 1955 Dodge two door Custom Royal  Doors and be heading east coast with the final detination being to Virginia. The seller does not deliver Local pickup only. I do have a 4 door  1955 Dodge Custom Royal lancer parts car should one be interested in a trade of parts for their time. 270 hemi Motor, transmission, steering wheel are spoken for but do have a factory 2bbl cast iron intake, oil bath air cleaner & strongburg carb.  Any suggestions would be great

John Fowlie goes to the east coast on occasion. Best to contact him. He probably also has the doors to sell to you.

I have a driver side front door here in eastern Iowa for a '55 Dodge convertible if that is any help to you. Sure would like to find a home for it.
Been sitting inside storage since 1969.

If there is a Fastenal in both locations, have the seller get it to one and have them shipped.

Probably have to band them to a pallet and build a crate around them to avoid damage in transit.
I shipped an NOS bare door ass'y years ago in its original box but had to carry it to a bus terminal for shipment

Dave: You did a great job of shipping me a cast iron 57 A-466 Torqueflite that you attached to a pallet and boxed in.

You/we used Fastenal and that worked great. Unfortunately, last time I checked, they now have an East Zone and a West Zone and you can't
ship across the divide for some reason. Maybe that has changed??

If anyone in WI could use this door, I can get it as far as Portage, WI in July. Portage is a bit north of Madison.
Just sayin'
I believe that is the same weekend as the big IOLA, WI shop/swap meet

If anyone needs something shipped West from West Texas to S. California, I will be making many trips in that direction and can ship stuff. I might be able to go the other direction too, but I'll have less space. I don't have a car trailer, so no vehicles.
