Importing a Cobra replica into the U.S. from Canada?
Has anyone ever imported a turnkey Cobra replica into the U.S. from Canada? What requirements must be met to do so legally?
From a quick read of the NHTSA website, it would seem that a turnkey Cobra replica would be considered a "non-conforming vehicle" in that it doesn't meet U.S. safety and emissions regulations, but that it could still be imported if it is at least 25 years old.

Does this sound right to you? Do any of you have first-hand experience which you could share? Thanks.
