Shipping to Australia-cars
Anybody know what the rules are regarding the importation of a US spec vehicle into Australia? I am sure its a big question, general info is all that is needed, like, can it be done??? (without major hassles or conversions)
thanks Fred

It looks pretty straightforward but I saw this:
"Note: Headlights on left-hand drive vehicles must be modified to dip to the left." I assume this means the headlights need to be re-aimed, rather than some sort of gizmo added to lower them while driving. thanks Fred

When I lived in Perth in the 70s I had a friend who used to come to America a couple of times a year and buy used cars. To get around the import duty he would pull out the engine and trans., put then in an oil drum, and import the car as spare parts. Once in Oz he would reassemble the car and sell it. That was nearly 40 years ago and I am sure by now the regs. have changed.
