This isn't a new thing by any means. Quite a few years ago, a friend sold his clapped-out Triumph TR4 to an English guy who was over here buying up old British sports cars to bring back to the homeland. He was only interested in West Coast or Southwest cars, saying that most older, low-to-medium priced cars in Britain were rusted beyond hope. About a week after the deal was struck, the guy showed up with a huge car hauler full of MGs, Triumphs & Austin Healeys and loaded up my friend's car. He was then heading off on a cross-country run to the Port of Newark in NJ so they could be shipped overseas.
