Does anyone else watch this show?
Can't believe how cheap the cars go for compared to what we pay here. A mint 1967 Barracuda went for $12,500 |

Yeah I seriously considered buying a car and shipping it back just to see how much (if any) profit there was to be made.
Some of the cars are mint, inside, engine bay and undercarriage yet way cheaper that a similar rusted out bomb in our country. |

yeah it would be nice
some stangs over there in really REALLY good nick can be 10 or even more grand cheaper than what you can find here take into the account of the shipping for around 3 or 3.5 grand and you could save a few thousand or make a few thousand. would love to import a dead stock 70 or 71 challenger...droooool.

I watch the auctions live, become a member and you get all the results on cars that are not shown on tv. You receive emails on cars up for auction some with very interesting history.

The cars that go real cheap are the clones of rare Camaros and mustangs
You couldn't build some of those cars for what they go for Also remember wages are much lower in the states so its all relative |
