 OVERSEAS SHIPPING ESTIMATES

LARGE ITEMS

If the shipment contains a hood, fender or other large object and is going overseas there is a $38 charge for each box. One or two fenders can go in one box. A hood takes its own box. Packing charge can vary but generally is $54 per box. Orders containing any large size item(s) may easily be delayed 3-4 weeks. We try to ship as economically as possible, and it takes time to do these. This type of order is packed as time is available. On some orders for instance, we expend a great deal of time custom making a box to save you the extreme cost of motor freight or airline shipment. If you are in a hurry for a fender or other large object you're going to be disapponted unless we have some exceptionally slow days. Large overseas shipments usually go by sea shipment unless you have somebody lined up to handle shipment by air. Since 9-11 it has become increasingly difficult to ship large boxes by air. It can also be costly beyond belief. Think thousands of dollars not hundreds as with ocean freight.

We have no way of knowing what the delivery charges by the carrier will be for fenders and hoods shipped overseas. We can provide rough box dimensions and weight to give to freight carriers.

SMALL ITEMS

This would cover boxes up to about 2x2x2 feet, 1x1x5 feet etc. Most items other than fenders, doors, engines etc fall into this category. For items other than large parts, there are two methods we usually use..Most overseas shipments are shipped by UPS Air (United Parcel Service). Some overseas shipments can go by parcel post (Post Office). This is usually more economical, but I have found you are trading off security, reliability and easier loss/damage claim processing. Large overseas shipments can also go by sea shipment. Please inquire at the time of order.

UPS AIR and AIR PARCEL POST are usually 4-8 days (FROM DAY SHIPPED). SURFACE PARCEL POST is usually 4-8 weeks. We only ship mailed items by methods that allow the shipment to be insured. This means we don't use junk mail rates. It isn't worth the headaches. You can save a lot by planning your orders ahead of time as the rate per pound drops as the size goes up. If it is going by the postal service please be advised we only do ship via mail about once every 7-14 days.

Again, this is just a crude guide and many factors will change cost, including size of box, and exactly where you are located.This does not include any local customs, taxes, fees, duties, tariffs, which are your responsibility. Some countries have exemptions or reduced fees for antique car parts, you might want to investigate that possibility. Additional costs include insurance, which is .35 via UPS per $100, and $2.50 plus $1 per $100 via the Post Office..

These guessed estimates were figured for most of Europe, Japan and Australia.

You can see that planning your orders will save you a lot of shipping dollars. Heavier boxes are much more economical per pound to ship.

Depending on the item and the order there may be a charge for the shipping container, and may be an increased packing charge. These charges may or may not be listed separately. We have adopted this policy rather than tack costs on to every hard to pack part, which isn't necessary on many shipments and would tend to drive the overall total price up.

This is PER BOX, not per shipment. We always try to pack and ship in the most economical configuration, but certain orders may require more than one box.
