What's up guys! We've all spent late nights scrolling through UK car auctions or Japanese export sites looking at clean vintage Landies and donor chassis thinking, "Man, if I could just get this shipped over..." 😂

For the guys who've actually gone through the import or reconditioned engine shipment process:

What are the hidden costs people always forget to factor in (demurrage, local port handling, registration paperwork)?

Is importing a full donor vehicle/front-cut still worth it compared to sourcing parts locally piece-by-piece?

Let's talk real numbers and import experiences! 🚢💸
