Here's a recent thread on shipping a hardtop that includes pictures of a properly packaged top: Hardtop Dimensions & Transportation Ideas
If you decide to have a top shipped, don't try to cut corners on packaging. When I was looking for a top, I found one that had been shipped in a cardboard box. It would have required several hundred dollars to repair the dents and scratches.
I've attached a couple of pictures.

Mine was $2,295 as an option with the car.

if you guys decide to sell the car, will you include the hardtop with the car or sell it seperately?

Depends on whether the buyer wants it. Don't think the price would change much, but to me as a buyer the hard top would be a plus.

The hardtop only adds about $600 to the Kelly Blue Book private-party value of my car. So, I'm presuming that I would sell it separately unless the buyer was willing to pay a premium over KBB.
Of course, I have no plans to sell for the next 5 years, so conditions could change.
