ive looked into this for other cars(supra) and sevs say that if the car is more than 15 years old as of march? last year it is an exception to sevs. imports 101 looks alright. but shuld have no probs with a 74

Here are details of my experience importing a Riley Elf from NZ....

http://www.ausmini.com/forums/viewtopic.php?t=25795&highlight=

I can supply details of who I used if you want.....

..... but check out the cost breakdown and what you are in for.... :shock:

....... I believe it worthwhile for an uncommon vehicle like the Elf.... :P

........... but for more common vehicles shipping money is probably better spent on something a bit better locally.... :)

I brought a Riley Kestrel in from NZ last year, happy to pass along the details of the shipping company and customs brokers we used if you're interested
