Importing parts from USA to UK (vintagespeedsterparts.com)

Jem Hayward

I'm still working on my 'fantasy' speedster project - not got the car yet but planning what I'm going to do with it! Looking for various trim parts that I know I'll need, like door handles, demister vents, hood handle, and so on. I came upon vintagespeedsterparts.com who have prices that are dramatically cheaper than anything in the UK. The UK parts may be genuine, better, etc, but I don't feel the need to have 'genuine' parts on a 'fake' car.

I know I will have to pay import duty (though finding out quite how much has proved difficult) and VAT and VAT on the duty, and shipping, but I think I'll be way better off.

Has anyone in the UK dealt with vintagespeedsterparts.com and the import process?
