wow.....Did you buy them from a collector or kept them for the whole time?

Traded a 62 Impala for the 64. Bought the 59 and redid everything....paint/body, put new lower quarters on it, new floors, new trunk, interior, chromed dash, chromed grille, cruiser skirts, and hydraulics. (and a million other things).

Here is my 57 Belair convertible I am building.
4 wheel disc brakes, a/c, power everything 20s on the back, 18s on the front.

If it were Cananda maybe! But in Europe, I'm not sure, but I heard something about the Auto Glass not up to US specs so they have to change all that to make it so that it's shatter proof of something....

HnC, I'm liking that Ducati 955 and that Trailblazer SS. Is that a AWD version or the RWD version?

Nope, you cant. As soon as you enter the country, you are then taxed. I have family in Europe, and sold cars to europe....thier taxes stink. Denmark has a 100% tax on vehicles, so if the car costs $20,000 then you pay $40,000. This helps cut down on vehicles and the price of gas cuts down on vehicles on the road. I remember seeing $7 a gallon when it was 85 cents here. The only way to somewhat beat the system is find another country close by, have an address there. A major hassle though, to say the least. They also pay around 25% sales tax which is nuts as well. But, they get payed more...college is free, and all medical expenses are free as well.

well, cant you say you bought the car for "less". Like teh declared value of an item when shipping internationally. You put $5 rather than $50.
