@MoleEddie – Nova Scotia what or how much would it cost to ship to Southern NJ. First things first. ...
I am not sure, but you can call any reputable Auto Transit company, tell them the car is in Halifax Nova Scotia Canada, give them your address, and they will quote you a price. If you're bringing a car into the US, there is some paperwork, with EPA, and Border services, however if the car is more than 25 years old, the paperwork is fairly simple.Hope this helps. :-)
Nova Scotia what or how much would it cost to ship to Southern NJ. First things first.
Hi folks, Welcome to my auction. Good luck bidding. :-) This beautiful car has been with me since 2017. It was restored in British Columbia Canada, and somewhat in Alberta Canada. When I bought it, I shipped it all the way to the East Coast because I didn't want to put any miles on it. As you can see I dropped a beautiful professionally rebuilt 292 engine into this beauty, as well as having the entire transmission inspected and reconditioned. Even the torque converter blades were filed. It's very hard for me to let it go, but my wife says you have a corvette, and that's enough. So good luck to everyone, and let the games begin. Also feel free to ask me any questions that come to mind. I'm an open book with this car.
BID: $10,000
