I second the Greyhound recommendation. When I was trying to ship the fiberglass nose from my Firebird (about 10 pounds total), the costs via FedEx and UPS were crazy! Even the truck freight was ridiculous.

Greyhound was by far the cheapest option. You just have to make sure that the box will fit. The inner fenders probably would, but a hood was too wide. It has to fit in the luggage area under the bus.

Package them up real well, box them, and take them to the drop off location. Actually, box them and call Greyhound to make sure the boxes will fit. You need all 3 dimensions and the weight.

That's your best bet that I know of. Good luck!
