Default British Import

Good day to you all,

Does anyone have any experience in importing a Cobra or any other marque 30 years old into Texas from Europe?

I am alittle worried that I am going to have to make alot of modifications to satisfy local licensing.

I am hoping that as it satisfies US classic car regs of 25 years or older from date of first registration that I will not have to do anything to the car.

Once it is in the country what do I need to do to keep it on the road, do you have annual inspections to pass for safety and that sort of thing?

any assistance appreciated.

After that I am going to need some assistance in sourcing Engine, tranny, jag rear axle..... oh and a fellow Hustonian who can weld real good.

and if anyone wants the heater..... I don't think I will need one anymore :-)

Thank Rich
