can anybody tell me what to expect? What if it contains an engine? I have imported 5 rovers but never any parts. Thanks in advance

maybe this is a silly question - Did you just tell someone to fill up a container with random used land rover parts?

No, I am thinking of getting all the parts I want and having them shipped over.

familiarize yourself with the CBP regulations and you shouldnt expect any surprises

Make sure the parts are steam cleaned and avoid using wood for crating and bracing. There is certified and branded pest free wood available for this purpose but best to avoid using wood altogther if you can.

Expect CBP to ask for documentation that you aren't required to provide.

I'd still expect a surprise though. Hopefully an insignificant one.
