Whohoooooo Vette is locked and loaded and departed LA today.
What a lot of hoops to jump through but I'm sure it will be well worth it.

3 weeks on the Water hopefully not the bottom of it. Lol

We'll after 3 months of waiting ( approvals , shipping from one end of USA to the other , and 4 weeks on the water ) the unique Vette has ported at Botany.
Mmmmm let's hope it clears Customs without to much dramas or damage

FYI. Door to Door with all taxes , duties , GST , insurances cost was $6100.00
I did have two extra trips prior to LA.
