I have imported a car at the Ontario-Michigan border, back in 2014. Added about one hour to the trip when bringing the car to the states. More than one data base was searched, and more than one agent inspected the car. They were looking for other records with same VIN. No issues were found when I was importing to the USA. (A seller or potential buyer should each do this searching on the internet first, before attempting transport the car to the USA.) There were no special papers to file before we hit the Michigan border, but proof of purchase was needed.

I then took the papers given to me at the border to the Michigan Secretary Of State (Local Office) for title and registration in MI. Other states use names like "motor vehicle bureau" for what Michigan calls the "SOS"...

I like the looks of the car, except... do you have another hood? That '67 style scoop does not strike me as the right touch on this car. To my eyes, it looks larger than one would expect on such a small hood.

Default Unique car... can you tell us the sale price?

For lack of a better word, this is an early C1 restomod.

Can you tell us the hammer price?

Looks like a nice car... just curious as to how the market is accepting modified vehicles.

Thanks... your honesty will be appreciated.
