Hi,
Does anyone no why English venders won't ship to US or Canada? I found a part I need but the Vender won't ship to NA? What, are they still mad about losing the war?
Cheers,
Bob

I don't think it's anything personal. It mainly has to with shipping and insurance costs and items lost during shippemt overseas. In the past I've sent parts to Canada which adds a duty tax to the buyer on the value of the item. If I claim a " no value " it's happened, the item gets lost and I lose out.
Anyone who is a member of the Anglia 105E club in England knows that they won't ship parts to U.S. and Canada for insurance reasons.

Go west young man: I've had no problem ordering parts from Oz and NZ
EnFord spares in NZ is a good source for parts and is very helpful in locating parts for you in the area.

I have ordered parts from Samll Ford Spares in England with no problem. They have a good online catalog too,
