We have people calling and coming everyday of the week who have either been told the wrong price for shipping or been told that they don’t need import letters or some other  unbelievable story !!    The other common one is if you bring your motorcycle in in pieces that there is no restrictions !!  And once its here you just put it back together and then go to the transport department and get it registered .  I can tell that no matter what anyone tells you this is totally WRONG

So when you next consider buying a motorcycle ,car or truck from overseas don’t take advice from the people on Ebay selling you that super cheap chopper kit or the US car dealer who knows someone that’s done it before ! Get in touch with companies that do this sort of thing full time and not as a hobby , Also don’t fall for that yeah that’s all it cost line and then find out there’s all those extra cost once you item gets here .  So if it sounds to good to be true ?? It probably is !!!

Some critics say that you should never try and reinvent a classic , But I think the guys responsible for green lighting the remakes of  such cars as the early Mustang and this  tough looking beast  got it spot on !                                                                                                                      

With one of these you don’t just get the classic muscle car looks !  You get loads of power, modern technology and luxury all wrapped in a great looking body .

If you have any questions about this car or the late model Mustangs just shoot us an email or give us a call and we try our best to help .

Although we don’t spend as much time as we used to rebuilding the classics like this 67 mustang we still get the occasional  customer who wants to try and keep everything under the one roof !
 

This is where my eldest Son and business partner gets to show off  some of his trade skills ! Even though he spends most of his time these days converting  late model cars and trucks he still likes to let everyone know that he’s more than a little handy with a spray gun .   We carried out a full conversion on this car and did then the paint work! Know it almost ready to go home to its owner for its re-assembly

Today we delivered this stunning looking car to its owner after finishing the left to right steering conversion !  For a while  it looked as if Mustang had lost the plot and where turning out some pretty ordinary cars !! But with the introduction of this latest generation in 05 they have regained that muscle car look .    A  to Z  Imports has RAWS approval to import and comply 05-current  Mustangs so if you can see yourself  in either one of these sweet looking convertibles or a high performance  hard top is more your  style then give us a call and we will do our best to help out !

This week we had this super neat 1957 Ford Thunderbird , Its not very often you get to see cars of this standard !    It came from Detroit and used to belong to one of the executives from Ford .      It’s good to see that there are still some good early model vehicles coming ino the country !    Unfortunately with so many want to be expert car importers out there  now we get to see a lot of vehicles from the other end of the scale .    So if you decide its time for you to buy your dream car or motorcycle make sure you deal with people who have some real experience in the industry and can tell the difference between a 100 point vehicle and  one  that has had cheap and nasty one day paint job !!

Yesterday we unloaded this 2000 model Indian Chief !  And it started attracting attention the minute we got it to the shop .  We are using this first one as a test vehicle so that we can make sure it meets all the ADR  requirements . Once we have  all that taken care of  it will have a Australian compliance plate fitted by us  and will be able to be registered and used  in any state of  Australia . So if you can see yourself cruzin the highways on one of these or would just like to know more about them just send us an email or give us a call .

Dodges are certainly one of the most popular vehicles we import and convert and its easy to see why !      They have really refined there trucks in the later models .   And with the different options and models available there’s one to suit most needs and wants .  Whether it be a Diesel or Hemi quad cab , single cab work truck or the SRT10 Viper truck there’s one for all purposes

So if your in the market for tow vehicle or a work horse that can handle more than the average Japanese 4 cylinder or maybe you just want to own the fastest pick up on the job site !  Well give us a call or send us an email and we’ll try our best to help .

Back in the States again and as always we try and fit in the swap meets that are on at the time , The first weekend we where here the Long Beach motorcycle swap was on . Its always a great place to go even if you are not really in the market for anything . You can spend hours checking out all types of motor cycle bits and pieces as well as a stack of bikes in the parking lot that doubles as a show area .

We even managed to catch up with  local custom bike builder Chica who has featured on multiple episodes of Biker Build Off !   He was a super friendly guy and was even up for having his picture taken with one of my sons

We just shipped this 1959 Corvette from the US  for a customer and it arrived this week ,These cars always seem to attract attention and I suppose considering the style they had for a 59 model car its easy to see why people admire them .   It makes you wonder  if any of the mass produced  vehicles being built 2009 will still being running in fifty years from now ?? And will they as sort after as these cars are ??

Over the last few days we have had more stuff arriving at the shop including these Harleys.

The softail is one that I was using to get around on when I was in the states on the last buying trip , Great for the traffic on the 405 freeway !!!

It’s a  87 softail with a set of apes and some flame work  on the tank and guards

Then there’s the 84 FLH !!!   This is the last of the shovel heads , I don’t think it maters what style bike your into you can’t help but have a soft spot for the classic looking old school Harleys like this one
