Here’s a new model from CMF of the 1956 Imperial Crown Ghia limousine made for King Saud.
I want one but I’d prefer not to pay the nearly $40 to have it shipped from the European-based dealer.
Any suggestions?

Since MCW shut down US operations, I think Germany is your only choice Randy.

@mg-harv Bummer. Just can’t justify the high shipping cost for only one model, even if it is cool…

@randyrusk Look for others to reduce the cost per item. That's what I try to do.

I will have one for sale soon. According to my European distributor, the CMF margins are so low, they can't offer them at wholesale prices. Bascally, they go straight to retail. And yes, MCW shipping is expensive.
