> Richard, many thanks for the reply. Wanted to ask you about the
feasibility
> of my plan to ship an fv 610 Command Saracen from the Channel Islands to
> Toronto, Canada via the Beltering show. Wanted to remove all three right
> side wheels and hubs to reduce width to less than 7'-6" so that the beast
> will fit into a standard Conex sea container. Will have to put a dolly
> under the "truck" to roll in/roll out of the "box" but this will reduce
> shipping cost to US$1600 (1/2 of cost of 40' container shared with
another
> collector) rather than the US$4000 for deck cargo shipping. Also lets me
> ship drums of lubricants, spares, tires and other "goodies" acquired at
> Beltring show and will offer better security and weather protection. Any
> comments / suggestions would be most welcomed. Also need
> information/contacts for a shipper's yard near Beltring site which has a
> truck bed height loading dock so that container could be loaded with
"loot"
> from Beltring without being lowered to the ground by crane. Many thanks,
> Robert(Toronto)
