Last month I had a call from an intersted party about my 190d ,he explained about transporting many diesel cars to Africa and how he makes the most out of each shipping container.The cars are cut down and the roofs removed then welded back in africa .Glass in a vehicle in Africa is a luxury I guess.They must flip the cars for 3 times their cost to keep things afloat profit wise. Next question ,how many cut down 123s can you get in a 40ft container if you cut from just after the tank and remove the front bumper? He said 2nd row is driven onto the first with steel ramps and heavy lumber layed down .Scratches on the paint are not important ,they buff out.
