I have been hunting for a barn door project for a couple of years and there seems to be a couple for sale in South America. I know they are pretty beat but my question has anyone ever bought one and got it back to the states and if so how many hoops did you have to jump thru.

Thanks,
Tony

I bought one from Uruguay 7 or 8 years ago and it cost around $5,800.00 bucks to ship.. It was a pain!
