They expect to be able to deliver to me in Windsor on Wednesday of this week.

My next process is going to be licensing....ugh!

Hoping that someone has has this experience with importing a car from the US into Canada. I would appreciate any advise that you might be able to offer!

The car was manufactured in 1999 so it is not regulated by the RIV. I believe that it would be my best bet to register it as a kit car? I am told that this will allow me to avoid emission testing. I was hoping that there might be someone else that has already been through this that might be able to give me some guidance?

Regards,
Greg
