Exclamation BuiltZMotors: The final product- on its way to a happy new owner!

I'll take pics of the next build up, things got too crazy this time around, I was moving into a new house


The motor will ship for approximately $120-$200, depending on where you are located in the US...(outside the US is a bit pricier)



The motor we sent today is going to NC, and shipping was $170 (from Albuquerque, NM)

motor center fold shots:




This fancy smancy bracket works perfectly to ship these on their side, the softer board secured to the crate makes the perfect surface to transport these motors across the country...






...and off to a better place


We will have a second motor done this next week (already sold), 2 others will be done the following weeks to come... I will have a sleeved motor done in approx 3 weeks for sale... our goal is to get caught up and have a few motors in stock ready to ship the same day!

Yeah the shipping is the cheap part. It is the insurance that is kinda expensive . Almost all the trucking companies only cover $.50 per pound for insurance . So on a $8000 motor that only weighs 300 Lbs you are only covered for $150 if they stick a forklift through the side of it or drop it on accident .

Then of course if you have to ship to a residence and/or need a liftgate truck they stick it to you .
