In my experience with these things, guys tend to have good results with a blue-box style box where the car is packed with foam rubber, or sometimes even paper towels, so that it won't move around. (If you have a more recent Athearn RTR type car with the plastic insert in the box, that's good, too.) Wrap the kit box shut with rubber bands. THEN pack the car in a larger box where you pack the smaller box in with newspaper, paper towel, foam rubber, Styrofoam popcorn, etc, wrap it securely, and send it off.
