I'm selling a '68 911L, that's a non-operative project car. I've been contacted by a fellow off the early 911S page that is interested. He wants to wire the money and have me meet a carrier to take the car for export shipment.

I'm already familiar with getting international wires, and have a separate secure account, but any other pit falls to look out for? Any advice would be appreciated!

FWIW here's the car

I have shipped two cars and it was pretty painless, used one of the companies advertising in "Classic Cars" (cant remember which one). I went out for quotes and chose the most reasonable one, paid with credit card, dropped of the car at the agreed spot and a couple of weeks later it showed up in the other end.

Also in my youth I worked on ships carrying cars and have fond memories of sneaking down the car decks revving the guts out of a brand new Aston Martin. Therefore if you have an rpm limiter turn it all the way down.


Good luck
