    You can buy it from the Brazilian seller. Price is reasonable but shipping to the US for the front valance/spoiler alone will be about $800. Good luck!

    Go back and read post #41 - Chuck pretty well sums up the problems with dealing with getting stuff from Brazil.

    I have 2 sets of the Brazilian GT side stripes (the hockey stick - Mach 1 type) that I had custom made for me in Brazil. One is the regular black and the other was done with the reflective 3M black. The shipping on the small box for these stripes was almost $40. And organizing payment through a Money Gram to a bank in Sao Paulo (big chance of loss with Money Gram from fraud) was at best scary. Luckily I was dealing with a good person down there. But what a total nightmare logically.

    If you can get some of the smaller parts back in your luggage, that should work. As for shipping, I think you'll find that shipping on anything LARGE will be too expensive to be worthwhile. PWG, who came to the last Roundup from Brazil, told me it was $60 to $80 to send a set of beltline weatherstripping to Brazil, and those are really light, just kind of long.

    That was about the same size box and shipping price of my GT stripes. Taillights should be fairly reasonable as the box size will not be too bad. Price skyrockets for anything long - like a hood trim is just a couple inches over their max length - and don't even try to ship something like a grille. I had a couple grilles on ebay that buyers in Brazil were begging for but the cheapest shipping I found for a 6 pound grille in a 50 inch long box was like $375. More if the destination was not a huge city like Sao Paulo.

    well we'll see the only things that i think is worth bringing are the tail lights the tachometer and glove comp don't need the whole dash just cut the glove part off and weld on the dash here thats all and that will be a light and small package the svo side skirts can be used from a mustang with a little mod, grabber hood we have them here, the grill can also be made here the center consol is light but very rare over there that's why it will be xpensive! but there is an other thing When you find these parts on junk yard over there they are a lot i mean a lot cheaper than on e bay i mean some of those guys are crazy!!:burnout:

    well, the only problem is to find one in a junkyard....................if u do, nothing will be that cheap.

    The last junk i saw was in 2002................i bought the front disc brakes, center console, roof light and left armrest. Paid like 20 dollars:dance:


    Hard to find today tho.

    Mavericks here in Brasil are waaaaaaaaaaaaay overpriced.
    Like this one......no egine, no transmission, rear quarter caught fire.........selling for 3000 dollars.

    But, there are some hard to find good cars with decent prices.

    I found a brazilian 1978 coupe LDO............it´s white and has everything stock, from wheels, to grill, seats and trims..............but it has a lot of rust and the papers are due since 1980.


    I don´t care...........i´ll buy that baby for 2000 dollars, do the bodywork and paint and then i´ll have a brand new car.:drive:

    U can take my son, but u can´t make me say where´s the car now!!!!!:bananaman
