selling Fury Junior

Post by rogerh »

I bought a Fury Junior off Ebay two years? ago. It arrived, and I soon realised I would not be able to restore it, due to its condtion and my finances.
I was fortunate to sell it (at a loss) to a man in Sweden. I built a crate for it and began to seach for a shipping company. Finally I found one. Caution to all: it is very difficult to pin these people down to final cost...I had to pay for pick up of course but then there was teh added charge due to the fact that the crate was on sawhorses in my driveway. It would require TWO ment o put it onthe ground so that ONE person could use a pallet jack to pull it onto a liftgate truck. Then the issue of insurance came up. More money.
Finally it went east from Seattle to NY where it was put on a container ship to Copenhagen.
Arriving in Copenhagen, the paperwork got "lost"..Customs wouldn't allow it to clear.
I don't know much of teh dtails from there. but the buyer said he had to pay almost $1000 for the privilege of driving the short distance to prt to pick it up.
"Daniel" the buyer, has two young children whao are very excited to ride thsi car. He is going to get my leftover seat upholstery so that he can dress up the interior.
