Thanks Guy/Rob I've got in touch with Dale for a replacement

All being well I'll be at the HRDs on the Sunday only as I have to attend my nieces wedding on the Saturday, bad timing or what

First time ever but looks like I'll have to trailer her as I'm out of time to get her tested and registered

Make sure one of you saves me a space

mal, cannot belive they pinched that much off the car, didnt come out of jacksonville ? as I have been warned about shipping from there
you poor bugger, I'd be gutted

Ours came out of Jacksonville and we got away with just a missing number plate and a pair of spare wiper blades! Think we got off lightly compared to you Mal, esp if Jacksonville has such a bad reputation.
Mind you we did pay thru the nose to have the car watched at all times before it went in its container

This car came out of Galveston, Texas. But here is the strange thing, this car was containerized together with others which where much more valuable etc and where all untouched. I am still getting to the bottom of it but I have an idea it could have been the pickup/transporter man who just might have the same car

Whoever it was, they had possession of the keys because the trim on the trunk has to be unbolted from inside of it.

Any road up the insurance will eventually cough-up (I hope

) but still a pain to get some of these old trim pieces
