Colin I received a top shipped by motor freight many years ago. It was crated in a wood structure that could take punishment from every direction, only falling from a tall building might have damaged it. The crate was nailed together with twist shank nails and it took me a couple of hours to disassemble. I suggest you contact the motor freight company and ask how they will crate the top and also ask about their insurance policy just in case something happens.

Hey Gang,

Has anybody ever had a nice top shipped cross country via motor freight? How is the top protected to avoid damage?
