| So I was wondering how they got the car out?
I don’t post too much sometimes in spurts but I read most of it when I get around to opening mail.
Scottie, don’t leave! Ur stories are too good to not hear.
Peter, so glad you are enjoying the Mondial T Cab to its fullest. It is a RED FERRARI CONVERTIBLE so enjoyment comes in many ways. Funny when I read the back seats will probably never get used. Sitting in the back of a Cab on the way to Lime Rock the pilot decides to pass a few cars. I see they are slowing because of the lead car turning left. Yelling stop I swear never again in the back, but moreso not even a passenger with this guy (yes a close friend to this day).
I’ve been here 20 years when I first met Scottie at Lime Rock that same day I spoke of above. Bought my 308 from Christian Scott in New Hampshire. Met Dennis at a local Mexican restaurant with MiniMichael for I believe a handoff to said friend above.Wonder how many guys are still out there that don’t post? Bummed I joined at the tail end of guns and watches seemed I missed some important stuff! Maybe someday I’ll read those older posts. Are they available?

When they loaded ours (in Oakland) they had a tiny Filipino guy, looked to be in his 50s. Seemed kinda small to be helping us load the boxes of parts and spare carbon body pieces, but he was strong for his size. When they were ready for the car, he went in ahead of the car and they pushed the car in. He strapped down the front then they ran the long forks of a tele-handler in over the car. He grabbed on, swung his legs up and they pulled him out over the car... they had done it a few times. He gave us high-fives and said "snug as a bug in a rug". They closed the doors after we strapped down the back. They put their lock on one side, we put ours on the other. Stopped at Fedex and sent one key to Oz.
Vietnam era Clyde could have done it.
How did the guy toat pulled it in there get
out??? Clyde, I think that you are a little too wide for
that!!!
Wow, really shows what a fat ass the TR
is. When we sold the Trans AM Mangusta to a guy in New Zealand, I thought
it took up a lot of width of the container. The TR is right there with
it.
<image0.jpeg>Here she is as
arrived in Sweden. Shipping costs with in insurance to my door was about 4500.00
USD.
Britt,
Was it in a box do you have any pictures of
the container it was in etc.? Was there any damage?
Can we ask what the price was? (roughly)

She left 4 weeks late from Savannah, just
missed the hurricane, popped into the U.K. and then Bremerhaven. Was transferred
to a local freighter and sent to Gothenburg. That took about 4 weeks. Then
cleared customs with a massive bill and sent by truck from Gothenburg to my
house in North Stockholm. Now waiting on paperwork so I can get it through the
import inspection and get plates on her. Doubt that will happen before the snow
and salt and grit hits so maybe next May. It’s been a long journey and Clyde was
very helpful with all the paperwork that I had to get from him to do the import.
Oh, I flew to Atlanta in June to see him and the car and to do the
purchase.
