Anyone in Penn Valley Ca? - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

helipirate · 01-01-2011, 09:28 PM

I am buying a part off ebay for my 66 c10. It is kind of big, around 3 tall, 5 ft wide and a few inches thick, shouldn't be too heavy. The seller won't ship, I am in Utah and need to get it to a shipping company. Any ideas that wont cost a fortune?

Thanks,

Chris

Talk to a car transport company, they are always cheaper when the have a light load.
or someone driving up there will sometimes post on craiglist under services.

A contact there would be nice, that's where a previous owner of my truck was registered. I'd like to contact him.

I'm not sure where it is at yet, only know its in Penn Valley, CA. I am buying it off ebay and the auction ends tomorrow. I messaged the guy and he said it is too big to ship UPS. Its only 40 bucks so I think I am going to buy it and if I can't get it home then I will just take the loss.

I will post the info once I get it to see if anyone can help.

Thanks for responses and help.

Penn Valley is 6 miles west of Grass Valley, off of highway 20, I`m just hoping your not tied up with the same seller that one our people here delt with, if you haven`t sent your money, don`t.....can`t believe there would be two sellers in the same hole in the wall,

What happened with the other guy? This guy has a high rating on ebay with thousands of sales, he just said that the package is too big too ship UPS.

I need to get it from Penn Valley to somewhere where it can get packaged and shipped for not alot of money. I think if it was in a box it would be able to be fedex'ed.

62 bowtie tried to buy a big window conversion from him, we are local to this place, within driving distance say 50 miles, 62 settled on a price and told him to give him a time as to when to pick up, the seller never would commit, this went on for months....62 just finally gave up.. all I`m saying is that something was fishey with the whole deal....just beware of this guy.
