I'm planning ahead for 2014. With one or two friends, we will visit Normandy which will be

- the 70th anniversary of the D-Day landings, aka le Debarquement

- the 80th anniversary of the launch of the Traction Avant, the iconic car which in France is like the 57 Chevy and the Model T combined.

During that time, I'm going with two other car guys and we are seriously thinking of spending some money to bring back a car and a lot of parts.

My plan is to restore several Citroens from among a possible 90 which I will have the pick of. So I'll need some parts from cars in France.

My question: WHO HAS EXPERIENCE with purchasing and/or shipping a container to/from Europe?

I'd like to know costs, timing planning needed, documentation etc.

All FACTUAL assistance appreciated.

Thanks
