December 2001 - Welcome to the USA

Turns out that shipping a 1938 5T project from Northern Germany to Northern Virginia is not the simplest thing to accomplish. A lot of time, and a good deal of back and forth communication, ended up getting the job done. Neither Peter, nor I had ever shipping something like this, and it literally took months to figure out how to get it done. After a crate was built, it was a ground trip to France, and from there, a plane trip to Dulles Airport in Virginia. A friend of mine and I went with his truck during our lunch break to customs, picked it up and brought it home.
