I have a 1960 Austin 850 project, and have started work on body shell restorations.  I have heard good things about the quality of M-Machine panels, and have downloaded their parts catalog.  I have tried to email them multiple times, withy no reply.  

 

I can also see no way to purchase from them on-line.

 

Can I purchase direct from M-Machine, and do they ship to USA?  Or do they only sell over the counter to locals?

I have used M-machine for all my Elf panels and generally they've been first class, but very busy.  Doreen is really helpful on the phone, but emails to them can go unanswered.  I've found if you email them for a quote and then phone to let them know it's there  you'll get a response.  

 

I can't comment on whether they ship to the US, and am really not sure if they have a sales counter as all my dealings have been over the phone.

I know they ship to Austria so probablly the U.S. as well. As said phone them and speak to Doreen. They don't answer emails in the UK either.

I've used M-Machine many times and love them but they are super old school. Best thing to do is call them, I'm sure they can post you whatever you need to anywhere you need it.

I live near to M Machine so if you want you can PM me a list of what you want and for now which state in the US that you live. I can then speak to Doreen and price up what you want and approximate postal cost. Then once you have the information you can decide if you want to go ahead and make just the one call to Doreen to sort out payment and full postal address.

I'm sure M-Machine was set up to supply panels to the Japanese mini market so I'd imagine there'd be no issue sending to the US. You would be best calling them.
