I'm with Bernie about the wheels and tyres. Big savings to be had there. I suppose you have a pretty limited market to sell off excess stuff up north, but I had almost a whole container worth of orders for Nitto street legal drag racing tyres simply by posting on a couple of websites. I didn't have the time to spare when it was all about to happen, so another guy took over the ordering, and he made a tidy little profit.

When a friend of mine had some space available (while I was building my car), I brought in my complete engine, bellhousing, flywheel, tyres, superchargers, complete racing 9" diffs, HEAPS of braided hose and fittings, lots of Wilwood braking components, gauges, fuel system parts, fuel cell, universal joints, slip yokes, t-shirts, books, etc, etc Saved thousands - and that was when the dollar was down the toilet.

Got enough room to bring an old car over?
