[Healeys] Shipping big parts (non-healey)

[Tom Felts]

I have had some E-Type doors sent to me.  The sender built plywood
"holders" for them.  The doors kinda fit in a 2X4 "pocket" he nailed into
the plywood.  then he sealed the works in cardboard.  The wood itself was
heavy, so this added to the cost to ship but the doors arroved safely.
