Appears to be a nice car though. |
Probably would have sold very quickly, too, if it weren't in Colombia. |

Posting it as $24,400 so it doesn't get lost to eBay expiration later.
Looks like the buyer might have a Jeep too?
Or at least he bid on one. |
I think were 11 bidders

$100 shipped for two sidemarker lenses?
I've never paid more than $25 for a perfect NOS side marker lens...maybe there's a $50 bill in the paper that's not visible. |

The irony is that about an hour after posting this - I was contacted via email and wound up selling some of mine for way more than I thought they were worth. Buyer is super happy... |

I try to buy this NOS Engine
Since from $5000 came down to $2500
So well OK I can get a quote from FedEx since
I have an account plus 40% discount too
So got my quote FedEx Freight
Size 36x24x15. And 270 lbs
My shipping quote was From FedEx of Egypt to FedEx
From San Diego.
Because a Residence delivery is higher Rate
So back to the Quote and I ask 3 times
And repeated Laud so the FedEx employees
around me can hear what was the Cost
$240,000 Dlls
Was Only available in Priority Express
Not any option like I done before Economy Freight
And my discount was NOT available either
So I try on Line With Outher Options Was a little cheaper $11598 Dlls
For shipping
I could NOT keep this Story to my self
Now I know that engine Why and will be an NOS for life _________________ 68 T34 1600 Automatic

It would be cheaper to fly the Egypt, take it with you to Greece or Italy or even France, then ship your way. Make sure to take some Pedro rack pick by the Great Pyramid

Can you use the portal inside the Great Pyramid?
It goes straight from Egypt to the Luxor Pyramid in Las Vegas.
Maybe this is only for high rollers. |
Would be cheaper than $240,000 ship one part at the time
And put it together as I get them _________________ 68 T34 1600 Automatic

Its Egypt people. Im sure if you are not there, spreken z language, look the part, pass out some currency shit aint gona get done. They will accept items all day long after they look it over for value - but getting shit out is a whole nuther deal.
Pedro is probably right about piece by piece. Or I am if you can get it on a passenger boat with you to Italy. _________________
