Customer Testimonials - Sales References
At " American Hemi Speed Centre " we have many satisfied clients from all over Australia.

We understand that the purchase of a classic automobile is a major investment and that our
service can assist them prior to completing a large transaction via the internet or via private
sale.

At " American Hemi Speed Centre ", we really appreciate all of our customers and in return
try our best to offer quality service , competitive pricing and good customer service.

We strive for 100% customer satisfaction at all times.

There is no part too small for our customers......we have been in business since 1996 and
imported cars and boats for customers not only engines and parts since that time.

So please don't be afraid to ask for what you need.

If we don't have access to a part , we will try to offer the name and phone number of another
supplier who might be able to help with that part.

We are always willing to provide any kind of technical help to our customers for all aspects
of their car or advice for importing a car or boat from the USA.

We are Mopar enthusiasts ourselves and we specialise in early and late HEMI engines, and
truly enjoy talking about these cars and helping our fellow hobbyists.

We are very proud of our reputation for our importation service and we work hard to always
continually improve on that reputation.

We have been mentioned in articles related to the services we provided in importing
customer's cars or hemi engines in " Street Machine " , "Crusin " and " Australian Street
Rodding " magazines , including websites and discussion groups.

Here are some excerpts from letters of recommendation that we have received from several
of our satisfied customers.
" For around 8 years now I have been a regular customer of American Hemi Speed Centre,
based in Adelaide, South Australia.
Several cars, engines and many parts have now been freighted from the U.S.A.
I would highly recommend the service and commitment that is provided for importing cars and
parts from the U.S.A. to Australia.
Full and correct communication of all details are provided from beginning to the end of any
importation.
The reliability of sources, contacts and help, both here and within the U.S. have proved
consistent, cost effective and without problem.
Most Importantly, I know that any problem that would arise would be dealt with in a very fair
and honest manner.
The focus of American Hemi Speed Centre has proved invaluable to my involvement in the old
auto hobby ".

Tony - Townsville, Queensland -2007
" American Hemi Speed Centre has imported several cars for me over the past 4 years.
Rob Thompson was, and still is, very helpful with any concerns I might have had or have
about Importing cars and tracking them down etc.
He was referred to me through a Friend who owned a Towing Business and I did not know him
at all and did not know what to Expect as I was wary about Importing a car as I found no help
with ‘other’ Importers.
I was given a detailed quote ( Other Importers did not want to supply one, ) and was told
where the car was at, trucking to the docks ,Arrival at the shipping company, Storage, Ship
whereabouts, arrival and quarantine proceedings and when the car can be picked up !!!
An Extremely helpful guy who will help any way that he can.
I will only use this company for any future Importing as it is VERY hard to trust Import
Companies and the People who run them.

I would Highly Recommend American Hemi to anyone who has any doubts about Importing a
car !! "

Yours Honestly,

" I would like to thank Rob at American Hemi Speed Centre for organising all

" Hi Rob,
i just wanted to thank you for your work in getting my Ford F100 here for me, if it
wasn't for you I wouldn't have even attempted to bring a vehicle over.
It's probably no big deal for you do this sort of thing, but it was a very daunting
experience for me ,but your expertise in arranging everything made the process a lot
less worrying for me.
Anyway Rob , a big thankyou to you and I hope we can do it again soon.
Kind regards ",

Scott - Geelong, Victoria , 2008

" Dear Rob,
I would like to take this opportunity to thankyou sincerely for the excellent service you have
provided in importing the 1928 Model A Ford from the USA. I have been quite surprised at
the ease with which the whole thing has been achieved, as I expected much more trouble ,
considering the state of the car and the accompanying bits and pieces ( parts).
You seem to have all the knowledge and experience to overcome all the perceived issues
associated with importing.
You may be sure , that if I decide to bring in another car at some time in the future,you will
definitely be the first to know. Thanks again.
Yours sincerely ",

John - City Beach, Western Australia - February 2008

" During 2005 I called upon American Hemi Speed Centre to source an early hemi
rebuilder engine. Rob Thompson provided me with a number of suitable prospects
and vaulable advice. The engine purchase and transaction and importation was
handled by Rob with a minimum of fuss and one time and on budget ( rare these
days).
In 2007 we once called upon American Hemi Speed Centre , this time a vehicle
importation.
Rob's knowledge and contacts in the USA made importing a car an easy step by step
process. On both occasions I have had nothing but praise for Rob who handled both
internal freight in the USA and the importation.
I have no hesittaion in recommending American Hemi Speed Centre and look forward
to further importation the Rob Thompson way.

Kindest regards
Tony Edwards - Melbourne - Victoria , February 2008
