Terry,

I have the opposite experience.  I shipped a basketcase MGA to the Netherlands 
via container ship.  Customs was no problem - provided a bill of sale and title 
for the car.  They approved it and I trailered it to the container company - 
helped shove it into the container - blocked the wheels - and left.  It made it 
safely with all the parts still packed in the trunk and drivers/passengers seat 
areas.

Good luck to him,
Gene

Has anyone any experience doing this?  I have a friend who wants to import a 
Triumph Gloria into Houston then get it to Aspen.  The car is partially 
disassembled so it has to come in a secure container
with a lot of loose and otherwise irreplacable parts - like the wings-
packed along side the chassis which at the moment has the engine and running
gear and primary body.

I guess he could get it from Houston to Aspen on a trailer but he needs help 
with the customs and shipping etc.

Any suggestions appreciated....
Cheers
