You will be the exporter, but we help you to have permission in Brazil. You will export the cars using your name and your documents. We will register you as an exporter in Brazil, you will have our help in all logistics to bring the car to Transit Institute to get new documents and contract the Freight Company to pick up the car and delivery to the Port that you choose.
You found a car you like!
We go to check this car in person for you!
When you find a car like the way that you are looking for, in our offers or in any part of South America, we can go to check this car for you, make our own pictures, take the measure of the body filler in the car, check the structure and make a video to send to you.
An example of our report you can see below.
Costs to check a car:
If the car is very close to our office, the visit is free, but if the car is far away then we have a cost sheet that changes the value depending on the distance; It's the same expense you would have if you were here, see the "go to page download: Costs to check cars.pdf" file on the webpage.
Choosing and Buying the car, on our webpage you will find many options:
We need to know what you are looking for.
You choose the car and we will export it for you.
Import 1 or 2 cars?
do you need parts? inside the car there is a lot of space!
Tip: to import 2 cars the fees, container, freight and Port expenses are almost the same to import 1 car.
Normally the profit of the 2nd car, cheap car, is sufficient to pay all the expenses that you will have.
Parts: Enjoy the space inside the cars: All the time we export cars with parts inside, parts in Brazil are very cheap.
Original cars:
We will find an excellent car, cheap, in some little farm lost in the center of Brazil.
It is important that cars are in places that never rain.
You will see a dirty car but minimal rust and minimum car crash because little cities do not have traffic and parking lot problems.
Restored cars:
We will find these cars in the cities around Sao Paulo city, where our office is located.
Is necessary be careful, we need to check the restoration in person.
If the workshop used "Car body filler", under temperature -10oC (-14oF) plastic and stainless steel will separate.

TÜV "details check list"
The car needs to work and run perfectly, of course, but there are small details that must be done.
the TÜV and H-registration clearance:
change all the lights, front and rear, only one factory in Brazil offers the correct lights indicator;
the tires you will need install new in Germany, countries with different weather use rubber and different design;
check the alignment of the doors;
change the tire rims;
install the original fuel hose (if it's transparent, we will replace it);
battery attached properly;

Map showing where the VW Bus T1 are hidden in Brazil
Where are the VW Bus T1 hidden in Brazil
Decades ago, coffee producing farms used Bus T1 to bring people to harvest coffee and took those people back to the city at the end of the day.
Today the way of harvesting coffee has changed, but in those cities, when the cars got old, they were sold to small farms.
This is the old map of Brazil, showing the cities where these large coffee farms were decades ago.
This is where the VW Bus T1 is.

Choosing a Car to Restore
Choosing a Car to Restore
For restoration, we advise you to choose a VW Bus until 1967. You will spend the same money to restore any car, the color doesn't matter you will choose the color(s).
Why until 1967?
Because the VW Bus Split Window (2 windows in front) model was manufactured in Germany until 1967 after that was made the Bay Window model (1 window in front). But in Brazil, the VW Bus Split Window model was manufactured up to 1975.
