Dig those tri-five Chevys! The aftermarket has anything and everything you could imagine for that car.

Good luck Stitch

Good luck Stitch.

Did you ever figure out how you were going to get it to the U.K?

Thanks guys ,

Yeah nightrain , I called a transport Co I found on Google , www.ezhauling.com , who will pick up the car in Texas and take it to New Jersey for $695 which I thought was a deal , from NJ to the UK is another $1075 for Ro/Ro shipping .
Then when it lands here the Government want a slice of me too , add the cost of the car and shipping together , take 10% of that and add it on to get a sub total then 17.5% tax on that

The 57 is probably my all time favorite, Stitch. I could just pick it up for you and keep it safely here at my place if you like.

Well I just called him and he wont accept my offer , I prolly would pay his asking price but it's kinda worrying wiring that amount of moola to a guy I only spoke to by phone who's 5000 miles away . I really wanna believe him when he tells me all the floors are good n'stuff but there's always that nigglin' in the back of my mind ............oh well I guess I gotta keep on searchin '

Anybody know of a Company around Balch Springs, I think it's just outside Dallas, that will check cars over for a prospective buyer ?
