OK, folks, here's the deal -

     Being the sick individual I am, I've purchased a 1974 Commer 
Autosleeper from England. (visualize a VW pop-top camper) I've made 
transport arrangements, and it looks like it should hit the port at 
Baltimore on Jan 1,2001. My question is has anyone out there imported a 
vehicle from the UK before? Any problems, pitfalls, etc?

     I have the DOT forms, and it's exempt due to age. Same goes for the 
EPA. Everything looks OK so far, I just need to figure out how they can 
stash the spares inside the vehicle!!

Any input? (Other than comments regarding my degree of sanity/insanity)
