    Anybody from BC or Alberta know a decent shipper who could haul a T tudor body from Montana to BC? I am kind of looking for a Canada based shipper, I talked to a guy in Montana, but he wants to drop it on the US side, says the paperwork for him to bring it across the border is too much work. I am waiting until I am 100% certain I can get this shipped before I pull the trigger on it, the seller is aware of that.
    Anybody know a Canadian based shipper in AB or BC that would be interested in giving me a quote to haul this body?

    Falcongeorge, why don't you get it shipped to Blaine Wa and then hop over and bring it home yourself. My ou could always say you got it at Monroe or a yard sale. LOL

    You can also have it dropped at my place and come get it at your convenience.

    my truck is still apart, and my brother doesn't have a passport, I am worried about getting stuck without transport and not being able to get it home. It wont fit in the back of the wifes Rav 4, even if I flip the back seat down...:p

    No, not really a "new" project, this one has actually been a long time coming, this would be the body for my 270hp/283 clone. I already have cherry fenders and splash aprons and stuff, full drivetrain, all the major Corvette engine parts, steering box, '40 juice brakes, yadda, yadda, yadda. Either a tudor or touring body was in the cards from day one. Its not a new project per-se, more like moving an existing "parts pile" to "car" status.
    Who all saw that survivor '32 5 window with the Corvette 2x4 equipped 265 in the last TRJ?? YUMMM!!!

    How long you been on the Hamb?... All the experts/hambsperts say the evil SBC is a belly*****on motor and are soo uncool ... You should keep it ford in a ford something traditional like a 302 or something powerful like a yblock

    How could I forget the fender rule? Must tear those off right away.... Don't forget to chop it 10" too ... Gotta get that " salt flat look "just right , I believe arbitrary numbers on the door are in the hand book?
