Re:

Hello Mark, Don't need the container delivered to my house I think. I have a trailer so I could collect at the port of Tampa. When you say a part container does that mean I share a container with someone ? I would not mind sharing a container with someone if that would cut down on cost. If you coul...

Re:

The containers go one way I am pretty sure. But if you like I can send you a couple of those Mickey Mouse T-shirts, what size do you need XL or are they for the kids ? :)

Re: E30 and Zone newbie...

I would say if you can afford it get a S14 engine and call it a day.
Hey I know a guy that has a few S14 engines sitting around :)

Or like some of the other guys said twin cam 318is and then super charge it with Downing Atlanta SC very nice reliable setup.

Hi It is perfectly possible - just going to cost you a fair amount. Shipping alone will cost at least $3500. Then you will have to pay tax etc. You should also be aware that in the UK we drive on the left - so most our cars are RHD. I recon if you want a rust free LHD car best bet is to look toward...

Shipping cars to USA ??

Anyone here have any experience shipping cars to the states ?
From what I know a parts car is easier and less expensive to bring over.

Looking to get a touring state side. No engine and transmission is fine.
Minimal rust is important to me.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Re: supercharged 316i

You could stick a S14 engine in that 316 and have some real fun :)
