Jack aus Maine möchte mit seiner 66er C2 Europa bereisen - Tipps?
strange ... Grübeln

both cars I shipped to Europe in Containers were about 1350 - 1400 US-$

ok, there were some loading- and unloadingcosts also, but NEVER 6000, thats robbery Motzen

maybe it helps Zwinkern
na gut, wenn ich nicht so schnell fahren darf, wie ich gerne möchte, entgeht dem Finanzminister eben einiges an Mineralölsteuer .... selber schuld Feixen

I was taken to cleaners on shipment to Europe and they wanted even more to ship my car back.

I found a good agent in Oslo, Motorships.No and the price for RO RO is $1,350

My other "agent" wanted $3,200 for same boat trip and $6,500 for container.

You live and learn

the problem with RoRo is the time the cars sit on the docks waiting for loading. The movers f.i. leave the sidewindows rolled down etc. Try to smooth that time a bit with kick back for the supervisor if you can manage to get hold of him. When ETA in Boston is foreseeable make sure you pick it up when it is rolled ashore.
good luck.

Even in Finland, they know about the tradition of washing my car. "Yorcci"
kept it up even in almost freezing weather.

Thanks again to the Corvette Club of Finland for the great reception.

I thought this would be a good time to think warm. Since it will be a bit chilly when I get back to Maine

Well the trip is starting to wind down and I fly home tomorrow. I dropped the car off at the docks and hopefully it will be in NJ around the 21st of November.

This weekend is the Annual Oslo Car Show. American Cars are very desirable in Scandinavia and if you get an email or phone call from Europe about your car that may be for sale, take it seriously.
Thousands of American cars are being bought by Europeans and they want to drive them as well as collect them. Enjoy the pictures.
