There are other options if your time in MD is not too critical. Most of the interior could be disassembled enough to cut down on the weight. The seat covers, etc... can be removed and reinstalled if you have good working hardware on your current vehicle. Many storage facilities have boxes for sale that can accommodate pretty large items. Packing extremely well and then strapping to a pallet for LTL shipment would be less costly. Mark, in very bold letters "No Top Freight". If you marketed the remains of the car ahead of time, you might be able to cover your costs.

Of course this will take time, which we don't know how much time you have available. I understand about the effects of Texas sun and heat on plastics as I have had to, and still need to, replace plastics and fabrics as well. There are times when I think some sort of business could be developed by installing northern interiors into rust-free, southern exteriors.
