Re: Anybody exported a "project vehicle" to the US ?

Re: Anybody exported a "project vehicle" to the US ?

I'm watching this thread with interest as I'm getting ready to import a vintage car in the next year or two. As far as I know, it's the EPA that are the only agency that require engines to conform to...

Re: Funny license plate

A few years ago (actually, more than a few years ago) I went in to the DMV here in San Diego and went through the book of plates already taken, and wanker 1/2/3/4, etc were all taken, as was any...

Re: What's on your American Bucket List?
