Title: Transportation Help Needed - Canada to the US - Never mind
Post by: DC Townsend on October 10, 2011, 11:46:30 AM
I recently purchased a Parrish hard top for my MGB from a fellow up in Gananoque, Ontario and need some help getting it over the border as I do not currently hold a passport. FWIW, Gananoque is about 35-40 minutes from Watertown, NY.

Anyone out there in MGB land that could help out? I also posted this over on the MGE board but not much luck so far.. Really hate to have to let this top go because I can't get it into the States. It would be the second top deal in as many months that has come to naught. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Hey David,
Give Greyhound a call.
I sent some stuff down to Jim in KY. from Abbotsford B.C. Canada.
They got it to him in less than a day and it was cheap.
They handled everything at the border and it was smooth as silk.
You wouldn't believe my surprise when Jim posted pictures of the parts that I had put on the bus the day before.
Hope that's helpfull.
Cheers
Fred

Thanks Fred. As it would happen, I'm going to give Greyhound Canada a call today and see if there's a terminal near the seller. Here's hoping it will be good news.
