What is the weight of a 250SL TOP? Need to have one shipped and truck outfit need to know
With many years of international shipping experience behind me, including that of a very large items, I would suggest you have this hardtop crated.
I have done this repeatedly for large pieces of equipment. Generally, the shipping agents will know who to call for crating, and they can come and pick up the top, take it back to their shop, crate it, and then arrange for the international transport to the USA.
The hardtop is very awkward, and very heavy in the back; it’s not a balanced unit.
Let the professionals handle it.
Short of crating it the easiest way to transport it is on a car!!
