Mr Banning has kindly sent us photos along with the following info :
I've had a passion for classic American cars since I was young, and had a
dream of owning one when I was fortunate to do so, so on the net I went
bearing in mind I had a budget, I didn't want a bucket of rust though! I was
viewing this 72 chevelle on an American car site a private seller, He
forwarded me many restoration pictures and receipts of all new parts.
So I went ahead and made the purchase, bearing in mind I'd not arranged
shipment yet!
I came across hill shipping who took all the worry out of the whole process
and made all the adjustments to meet my budget, including the transport from
the seller to the port of export and to the uk, I was updated and all the
paperwork was completed by them, I would not hesitate to use these guys
again and recommend to anyone who wants peace of mind
Thanks again hill shipping
Regards Andy Banning.

Its here!!
Bought this car and drove it most of the way across the US on a once in a lifetime Road Trip
Everyone said we couldnt do it – but we did
Always been a little reluctant to go the whole hog and import a car as it always seemed so expensive and time consuming.
The guys at Hill Shipping made sure this was as easy as buying from just up the road.
Car drove excellent and once wed got it to the port, all the work that Jamie and Co. at Hill Shipping had done for us made it relatively easy to get all the paperwork done and have the car ready for shipping within 2 hours of arriving at Maryland dock yards. Have to mention tho that the guys at the doc in Baltimore were sooo helpful! What was expected to take about 4 hours at the doc, took just over an hour.
Arrived unmarked a mere 4 weeks later.
Cheers guys – well be using you again, if were lucky enough to find another car this cool!

Hatch Back!!!!!!!!
Hooked on American classics.
Well here we are back with Kevin and his team at hills shipping. Last year we decided to change our chrysler for a cadillac but the only one that would fit in our garage was a 41 fastback which we found in New Jersey. We employed Kevin and his team to ship it into southampton. It all went smoothly until i saw it for the first time, it needed serious work. We were disappointed with the car and realised we were never going to be passionate about it so we set about doing the work on it and sold it to a car dealer in holland.
Unperterbed we began looking for our dream car once again. We found a one owner 1971 coupe de-ville all original with just 65000 miles on the clock. We did our homework and went into everything thoroughly with the owner Harry Clarke from Classic Promenade who specialises in quality rare classics. He was very helpful and imformative a real pleasure to do business with. Now the fun starts, it wont fit into the garage?! My first port of call ( excuse the pun) was Kevin at Hills shipping, i just left it all to him and his team. I had just 6 weeks to widen our garage! So weekends were taken up knocking down, concreting and building. We just managed it by taking advantage of the 7 day free parking facility at the docks.
We assembled all the paperwork from Hills and went to the docks to collect it. Thanks to Kevin and his team all we had to do was drive it home. It was fabulous everything we ever dreamed of, we love it! It is a special feeling for classic car owners to have a car that turns heads and is lovely to drive. Thanks to Kevin at hills shipping for helping us to realise our dream.
This one is for Keeps and with the greatest respect to kevin. Hatch wont be back!

IMPORT OF FORD MUSTANG FROM THE USA TO THE UK
Hill Shipping arranged shipping of a 1965 Ford Mustang on behalf of Greg Thompson. The vehicle was shipped from the USA to the UK , we arranged collection from the seller and shipping to the UK by ro ro, Greg then collected the vehicle from Southampton docks.
Here is what Greg has to say :
For some years now I have wanted to buy a Mustang about as old as me. I spotted this K-code on a website inFlorida and had to have it. I picked Hill Shipping to transport the car home because a friend had used them, and because they offered to assist with BTI tax relief. I also found on enquiry that Jamie gave a very personalised, responsive service. He arranged for pick up at the vendor and delivered the car via RoRo ferry without a scratch to Southampton . I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Hill Shipping to anyone else. Now I’ve got the car it’s a gas to drive and looks great – happiness!

Steve had these words to say :
Another cold winter's night was enough to decide it was time to do the trip of a lifetime to a sunnier climate. We had rented Harley's in the past but this time we were going to buy ourselves a real American Harley and bring it home to the UK after riding it around Arizona , California and Nevada .
Kevin at Hill Shipping made what seemed like a daunting task, all very straightforward. Not only was his service 1st class, his patience never wore thin with my never-ending enquiries. He even put me in touch with Agents in the USA that I eventually used to find my 100th Anniversary Dyna Wide Glide. In fact it was so enjoyable we're ready for another holiday of a lifetime my first call will be to Hill Shipping.
In the wind.
