bringing a Noble to canada?
 
Hey guys. according to this thread
http://www.revscene.net/forums/spott...ighlight=noble

there is a noble local here in vancouver. anyone know the process of bringing one up? I've brought cars up from the states but it seems nobles are a little different?

Noble, as a car company, can't be registered in Canada. That car is a kit car, I believe.

so the only way is to buy the kit and build it myself?

No.

You but the car in the US. Tear it apart. Bring it back up piece by piece and register it as a kit car with ICBC.

Amateur building of kit cars from imported starter kits

Is a starter kit a car or parts? Shipment contents provide useful clues, and each import is considered on its own merits. TC may ask for a complete parts list (not including attachment hardware).

In a parts shipment/starter kit, important systems such as the fuel system, the brake system, the power train and the suspension system are not included.

When these systems are completely absent, the kit will likely pass Customs if:

* the kit is not assembled (the body and frame are separate);
* the wiring harness, steering system and interior parts are not installed (with the possible exception of the windshield, some trim and the instrument panel).
so i just have to take the body off. take out wiring, take out steering, and interior?

I would contact the company to see if they have the info for you.
