If anyone knows any international shipping companies I'd appreciate the lead.

I know it would be expensive, but people ship goods all the time by sea and the salt air doesn't ruin it. Crated and placed in a shipping container it should get here looking like it left France. It's not like it's going to be out on the deck with the waves washing over it. I'm like Buzz, if it was my grandfathers', it would be here with me and running.

I say go for it!
I wish I could find my Grandfathers old Indian, Some things just need to stay in the family.
Good luck.

My opinion ... The shipping cost may be expensive, but having Grand Dad's scoot with you would be priceless.

In other words ... GO FOR IT!
