Default Hello from U.K.
Hello all,

My name is Sean, I live in Wales in the UK and have just put a deposit down on a 66 Chevelle, its a car I have always fancied, I sold a 68 Charger R/T to buy her!!!

She currently is in Missouri, awaiting shipping.


She runs a 454 60" over to 468 with a 871blower, 4 speed TS10 and 12 bolt rear.

I will post some pics as soon as work out how!!

Sean

Welcome Sean,

Lucky man to get the car you have dreamed of owning. Just curious how long it will take you to get a car shipped from Missouri to the UK?

Welcome aboard. Wow, I cannot even begin to imagine the stuff you have to do to ship a car overseas. Have you got any pictures you can post. Would love to see your new baby.

Its fairly straight forward, I also have the advantage of doing it once already,
takes about 6 weeks in all.

The taves that have to be paid hurt though.

Got to convert lights to right hand drive beams, amber turn signals, fit seat belts and the squirters got to work!!!! just to pass the anual safety test to be allowed on road.

We have a friend who lives in Ireland that imported a 71 Chevelle SS a few years ago and he loves it. He is president of American Musclecars of Ireland and they have many nice cars there. He will be coming across the pond for a 2 week visit soon to be at Chevellabration .Check out their website sometime or even join their club, I am also a member.
