How much $ for a 3.2 gt replica in the Homeland?, Ship it, enjoy @ Nurnburgring, sell it Options

[BigD9146gt]

Anybody pay attention to what a restored '73 914 that gets a 3.2 motronic 6, fiberglass flares, 8 pt chromoly cage, Quaife, Moton suspension, RSR front spindles, Boxster calipers, 3pc Fuchs with BBS halfs, 911 dash and complete wiring, bla bla bla, etc etc, overkill retarded mods would go for in Germany? My goal is to finish my "Decade" project, ship it home, drive on the Nurnburgring North Loop (sub 11 min w/o fence meetings), then up into Austria to Kitz, then sell it, buy a couple of Ducati's and visit eveything agian on -2 wheels. Any ideas on $?

Thanks, D.

IIRC, some countries in euope extract heavy duties on vehicle sales if the purchaser doesn't own the car for like a year prior to the shipment. I painted a 1960 Buick Invicta sport for a Finnish engineer who was living and working in the states. That's what he told me. But if could be hearsay. Anywho.... I agree with the mods and the vehicle inspection thing. To the average inspector the vehicle will simply look like a race car someone is attempting to license for use on the streets. But what do I know. I've never been there.


(IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/hijacked.gif) A little off the subject but still having to do with transporting your car over seas... I like the idea of sending your car over, cruising around say.... With Jeroen when he finishes his car.... (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/idea.gif) and shipping it back to the states.

Q. Anyone done it?

Q. If you did would they let you drive it?

Q. How would you insure it? ( collision, liability, US insurance in some cases doesn't extend even into Mexico)

Q. What would it cost to do something as outragous as that.
