So the latest is they tell me the ship has come in. Thanks again to all that have added to this discussion.
FreightNet have been pretty good so far with quick and useful responses to all emails and phone calls. My costs to to the broker are still to be completed with things like cleaning fees, etc to be in that amount but initial indications from them are looking around $1600-$1700.
I have had my customs invoice come in an that was around the $4500 mark which in fact was better than I was expecting. They calculated everything based of my estimated value to them of around $40,000 for the car. Having owned it for the 2 years while living in the US helped here given my US Bill of Sale was not required.
Looking forward to receiving word of being able to collect it next. Plan is still to drive up with a trailer, collect the car, and bring it back to Capital Classics in Hume for a pre-rego inspection before registering the car.
My last question for you all would be are there any tips on things to take with me when collecting the car? My thought are leaning towards things like new battery, some tools, WD40, air compressor, etc, just in case there is trouble starting the old girl....
Thank again everyone
