How you think it would cost to bring Russian, say, Lada Samara to Indiana? Thank You Very Much!

[bergerdml]

I'd guess about $3000-$5000. I paid about $4000 all included to get a Trabant from England to Los Angeles. This covered shipping, port charges, importation taxes and paying someone to handle all of the paperwork. It did not cover any land transport. I dropped the car off at the port in Southhampton, England and picked it up at the port in Long Beach, CA

Q: What's the one that looks like a big old 1950s Rover?

A: That's a Bristol

Q: the wartburg had plastic duroplast panels did it not, the 353

A: No, the Wartburg had a steel body. The Trabant had Duroplast panelling though.

Thanks for answering the questions. Which is the Bristol? At what time in the video?

What's the one that looks like a big old 1950s Rover? (Shortly after the man in the green Wartburg).

[bergerdml]

Nice to see all these old cars still going, I would rather have some thing like these than a modern car as they are so different!

[hawksleyart01]

think these cars are quite interesting. We've never had them in the UK except for Skodas ladas and FSO's.

I'd love to have drive of those big old Tatras with the weird front ends.

Although there is a Wartburg driving around near me.
