Easy if you can get it to port, Kingstown shipping will sort the rest, best if its 10 plus years old oh and make sure it has a title...

Kingstown shipping can also arrange the transport to port in the US. They were cheaper than a dealer quoted me last week.

Probably not a bad idea either because as a "wreck" the value of it will be low, and it won't be taxed too much on arrival.

All of the above good and I shipped my 2 from Houston to Chatham with Golden Chariots.

I'm sure you're aware of this but as a regular to Houston, I have to warn you.

You will see lots of old cars on peoples properties as you drive around.
Be very careful just wandering into somebodies garden for a look or poke about.
They can (and just might) shoot you, which is legal there.

Thanks guys - any of you got the addresses or phones of Golden Chariots or Kingstown shipping.

Adam - thanks for the tip about snooping around, I've watched Texas Chainsaw massacre a few times LOL.

John Kuhlin is the man you need to speak to.

This is the Saturday night car show that I go to. http://www.niftee50ees.com/

It's held in a big supermarket car park and there's usually a lot of stuff for sale and all the car owners are very friendly.
Someone there will be able to point you in the right direction towards what you are looking for.
