		Hi all, 
I am importing a FFR coupe in a month or so and will probably have room in a container for another one. 
So should anyone be considering buying one this at save you a fist full of cash on frieght. 
Let me know if anyone is keen.

		Gav EXCITING Times!  Who are you using to freight?  My Hardtop is floating over using USATOAUS.  They seem pretty competitive. 
 
You probably already know, but make sure that any timber used by FFR for packing to import into Australia is (ISPM-15 stamped).  Im sure they know this having freighted here before.  yYu don't want to get extra charges for quarantine stuff. 
 
If you need to know more PM me and I'll post you all the info.

		Not too much to show just yet Spook, but there is an MG9 gearbox sitting in the workshop as of last week. 
I am quite happy shipping mine on its own, but thought if someone was sitting on the fence half price freight might just get them over the line. 
As of now, I am planning on having mine delivered to the docks in Adelaide as its my closest port, but if someone from Melbourne was keen I'd be happy to pick mine up from there too.

 My Factory Five supplied crate came into the country no problems at all.  No worries on this front ...
 
And Gav, good luck with your venture, it should be fun

 a friend of mine has containers on the water all the time into adelaide they go from the docks to a quarantine place in smithfield to get unloaded and the cars pressure cleaned if needed ..i grab all the wood they use in the containers as it burns fantastic in the wood heater not sure what type of wood it is but it's nice to work with ..
