Terribly rude question but any chance of a cost breakdown inc purchase price ?
Would give others a good idea of whats involved.

Hi Bigfist,

1970 Chevelle SS are priced between $20K USD - $30K USD depending on condition, options and all the bells and whistles.
In regards to shipping I decided to go with a 20 foot container organised by my private shipper in the US to avoid damage from other vehicles that are usually stuffed in 40 foot containers by cowboy shippers. You could save a bit on shipping if you went the multiple car route but theres a big chance of damage.. My vehicle turned up without a scratch..

Getting it over here:-

Container & Internal Freight in US was $2800
Shipping Fees, AUS customs, fumigation & warfage fees in AUS was $2000
And good old GST in AUS which is calculated on vehicle price, Shipping and warfage costs and insurances which was $3500

So as you can see its not really that cheap to bring a car over but I'm very happy with the result.

Cheers Ash
