Can you not import a whole UK car? Second hand cars in the UK are pretty cheap at the moment.

Check www.autotrader.co.uk

To import a UK car to the US would cost around £2000, plus all other charges like import duty and brokerage charges on top, as well as the USA's emission tests too! would cost a lot more than the car is worth depending on its age.

Complete waste of time and money! Just invest the money into building an ultimate show car, it doesnt need to be RHD out there!

Most UK cars would suffer from rust too.

So do US cars. It does rain in the US too - especially in NYC!

Rain alone isn't what rusts a car. Salt in the air and roads is a huge contributing factor.
