Restore 403 or sacrifice for parts?

Clyde,

For the Interactive Restorer, to coin a phrase, I would agree you want to find someone nearby.

In contrast, for the person who wants to ship and collect, however, NZ still has something to offer. Many of their customers do not ever visit NZ, they simply send the car off and a year later get it back... some are shipped directly to the Concours. The place has an excellent reputation and their shop is astonishing... everything is done in house, including making new engine blocks if someone wanted it. Shipping? RoRo is about $1700 USD UK-> Christchurch Contact Wallenius Wilhelmsen Logistics UK. The appeal of this approach is for people who want it done right, but don't want to think about the process.

For such a person, the only trip one would consider is a driving holiday at the end which is in pleasure, not a part of the restoration.
