Questions for this shipment: 

Question: I have a few questions. How are you planning to load and unload the cockpit? Would you prefer it to be wrapped in shrink-wrap so you could keep it covered until you use it? Is 2300#'s the true weight to the best of your knowledge? I can wrap it, and haul it on a bunk style boat trailer with carpet covered wooden bunks which should protect it and support it. (11/16/2006)
Response: I forgot the weight... I think the range is within 2300-2500lbs. which was given to me by seller. (11/17/2006)
Question: Is this going to MotoArt? (11/24/2006)
Response: No. This is totally private deal... (11/24/2006)
Question: I sent you the first question. I am enroute to the east coat now but should be out west within 3 weeks. If you don't get someone by then I can do this for you. Jim (11/24/2006)
Response: SundancerXpress.. Where are you...? I expected you to reply sooner, so that I can get this on the road. I'm getting bids, but I try to delay til I hear from you. Also the DC-6 cockpit is out in the open, where the vandals have visited few times stripping and doing more damage... Thank You pekka (12/4/2006)
