Unless it was BUILT more than 15 years ago, ANY CSX is illegal in Canada.

Darn it. I'm confused again. How did the black CSX in the video get into Canada, if it hadn't been finished yet, and thus it's not more than 15 years old?
If FFR has the Canadian importation thing down, then they certainly should have a leg up in your Cobra decision. |

Buy Used In Canada!
I know where there is a FF5 within a one hour drive of you that is for sale. It is one of the best sorted out cars that I know both auto cross champ, solo 1 champ and a plated car from the Targa Newfoundland. The price is very good and I can put you in touch with the owner if you are interested. It was built before the new Transport Canada rules and is titled as a 65 in Ontario so insurance is not a issue. The car was put back to street shape and freshened up.
Cheers Greg

If it's titled as a '65 you have issues.

You can bring a CSX into Canada legally but it is a major project and pain. I know of a guy here in B.C. who bought one and had it shipped to a warehouse close to the border. He dismantle the car and brought it across as parts, it took him a year. Then it was then reassembled certified and licensed. I think he said it was a three year event but he has a legal CSX4???. I don't know the man at all I just ran into him in a strip mall parking lot and we got to talking with a common interest. I am sure you could do that with any kit.
I took the FFR parts list and duplicated it once regarding another kit, about 4 years ago. I then sent the list off to Transport Canada and got an approval in principal. You have to make sure there is not enough parts that they consider it a vehical. No electrical, fuel supply, brake or suspension parts, basically frame and body only. You then bring the rest over piece at a time. Like I said a major project.

Anyone who disassembles a CSX or any another new or used Cobra and reassembles it and has it licensed, now owns an illegally licensed Cobra as per Transport Canada.
