my mates just inported 3 good cars from the states that were inspected by independant valuation companys in texas and st louis, 2 are fine but one that was restored in 08 has thrown up a few problems on the mot.. nothing that we cant sort but what was classed as good over there is just not up to our standards...

What cars are they Rich, got a mate here who recently brought over a 55 chevy and a 59 chevy belair, both cars needed work but were drivable.
I'm still getting the two 1950s cars mot'ed, the fact there used for weddings is reason enough got a ticket on the 56 last week

Mate of mine is almost at the end of a 59 Bel air restoration 3.9 straight 6 with 2-speed Powerglide auto, huge car

or just cars pre 60?

I did ask the Fella's this at the garage Sam while in getting the Imperial Mot'ed, just pre 1960 as far as they know.
