Guys, this sounds like great fun. I think I participate too. I live in Hamburg in the North of Germany.

Cheers

Ferretti, looks like this is going to fly. Have you figured out how it begins? Are you going to create a "mail to" list so when someone gets it, they will know where it goes next?

My geography is poor so I figured I would do my photos and ask the board who would be the best next person to get it from the list. Then take the hand off the wheel and let it work it merry way around the world in a free spirit kinda way and just enjoy watch it on it's trip. :)

Here's how some flyboys did it...it's a loooong read, but some helpful info regardless:

Not that it's a compete running vehicle, but you'll get the idea.

Things like reuseable packaging are really helpful, and more cost effective than each person having to re-do what had been done previously... :wink:

I'd hate to be the last guy in line to ship it out of the US with regards to out of pocket shipping expense... :shock:

I will ship from states or paypal some money to help with shipping. I can't image it be more than $10 or $15. The package for sure is not heavy.

If this works out well, I might have to donate one of my completed cars for another trip around the world.
