That would be a solution. One of the other problems in searching US based sellers is the model type. They all lead to 380/450 models . Obviously not many 280SLC's were imported to America.
This leads to the problem of trying to find part No's etc. I believe only 9000 280 models were built so getting parts can be a problem.
If I can find them another problem comes up with the, in many cases, won't ship to Thailand statement.
If anyone out there (US) can post a fuel distributor and 6 injectors reconditioned etc I will do a cash transfer to them, they can post after receipt of the cash.
I have never used paypal etc, over here I don't even have a credit card, it's just two risky.
I may have to throw myself on the mercy of customs here and bite the bullet on import dues for K system or Carbs when they arrive.
'Global shipping' ? is the best I've heard, they deliver to home address. Others that are generally used may hold in BKK for a few and on collection charge a storage fee.

If you want a quiet restful retirement don't try to rebuild a classic car here.
