Import approval - cheque cashed = approval granted ?

Post by Frank70 »

I noticed that the cheque I sent with my import approval application was debited from my account the other day. Does that mean the application is approved ? If so, how long until I get the actual approval ?

Cheers,
Frank.

Hey Steph ... You haven't been following the 'Kens other cars' thread ...

A 70 El Camino ... To be a father/son project.

took advantage of the good A$ and got in early. Knowing my luck, the A$ will go to US $2 !

Anyway, I managed to find a 250 cube six from radiator to powerglide tranny to drop in it so he can drive it on his Ps.

Cheers,
Frank.

No, I don't. Those threads are dangerous!

Sounds good.... How much boost with the Chev 6 take? I'm surprised you didn't look for a Ranchero, keeping it in the Ford family?

As far as I'm aware that's what it means Frank. In which case it should be in your mailbox any day.

Yeah, thought about a Ranchero, but I am not totally one-eyed Ford and plus being based on the Chevelle, its easy to get parts for.

how much boost ... Hehe ...

Cheers !

My son still has a few years before he can drive it, but that gives us longer to work on it.

Plus I can drive it !!

Frank I'm guessing that with yours being a cheque, they banked it prior to approval to clear it, so the one week isn't necessarily a good indicator but still pretty quick. With credit cards usually it's debit=approval.

OK Rick.

I am in no real hurry. I thought it was a bit too quick.

Apparently the car is on it's way !
