  13. Looks great Buddy! Keep up the good work. I know that this is the borring part, fixing all the rotted out parts, but before you know it you'll be done and the fun stuff can begin!

    Are those Olds??? pretty cool, but 200 in shipping is crazy pal! you can use USPS for a quarter, or less, of that price. it takes a couple weeks instead of 3 days, but the 150 you spare can go on other parts.
     
  20. Thanks ! :)
    Nope , 53-54 pontiac stationwagon , very rare. The shipping cost was a little over 60 , and the customs clearance was almost 140 , so not much I could do about that

  21. Nope custom clearance sucks! You'll have to bend the system a bit! Some tips: Send private, lower the value that's put on the little green slip, Gift or sample, or have it send to a friends house in the US and have somebody bring it home as a carry-on or maybe bring it home next time you go yourself!! :)
     
  22. Sounds like some good ideas I'll try that sometime , I couldn't get the striping pics over to my computer. I'll post them when I have figured it out !

    oh i see.
    140 in customs??? fuck! here is 20% of total value of goods, shipping costs included, plus about 20 in stupid fees, like the time they spent opening your own package and material used to seal it back and shit like that..... and its already a lot. But 140! out of 500 is serious business! fuckin thiefs!

  27. Still learning how to weld Huh? I think you're doing great... You'll get to be excelent before you know it! Keep up the good work, soon the fun can begin!
     
  28. Just be careful that you don't change too much at once, you still need to be able to register it as a ombygd fordon (modified vehicle) and not step over the line into hembygd! (homebuild) Have you talked with SFRO (Swedish organisation that oversees custom mods.)
