Cool story behind that original owner Porsche, it's possible his kids were conceived on that car. Too bad it can't stay in the family.

That said, the appeal of bringing that green one back to life that's been sitting since 1976 is strong. | If you didn't want to you wouldn't even need to spend more for a nice newer 911. You can get pretty damn nice 996s for 20k all day every day on rennlist.

And both cars have the blue anodized roll cage.

I'll have to dig a bit but I feel like those are two different cars, I swear fishtaco and red_kryponite were selling around the same time. Plus that second car was in coquitlam for a while still with diffuser on.
edit: nvm same car: http://www.revscene.net/forums/65149...a-integra.html

I still think they're two different cars, the valve cover is the same colour but its different cover all together.

Same car  , it had a boosted b series before and some other owner swapped it to a H series lol. It was saito's before and I pmed fishtaco regarding it. I remember driving that thing, interior had no shift boot and the ugly steering wheel. It vibrated like crazy

1968 Ford Pickup - $4900
Interior truck, could be relatively rust free then. Sweet style, IMO, and pretty classy in black.  1968 Ford 1/2 ton
1965 Dodge Polara - $3500
You might think it's a bit grampa-styled, but if the interior is good thats a fair price on a car with lots of potential.
As it sits, I'm guessing the car will float down the road like a parade float...but some tasteful mods will make
it a nice B-Road cruiser. Automatic, and no photos of the interior make it only a "potential" good deal. 1965 Dodge Polara 
1972 MGB GT - $7500
Apparently a California car, and looks like it still needs out-of-province inspection. Check to confirm that the
duties have been paid and they have the CDN Customs paperwork with stamps, as well as all the USA export
papers...otherwise this one is a pain in the neck to register. Colour isn't my first choice, but I'll take a cali car
in a colour I don't like over a northern car in one I do.  1972 MGB GT
1968 Triumph GT6 Race Car - $8800
Probably needs a lot of updating if you were to take it back to a track for historic racing, but the potential for
building a GT6 racing tribute is there. The lines on these cars are awesome, and there's a tonne of potential.
The '68's were known for terrible handling in the USA, resulting in the GT6+ for 1969. So definitely ask about
rear suspension changes, and take it for a test drive.  1968 Triumph GT6

That MGB GT looks like a great buy pending it's paperwork is in order. Too bad id want to ruin it with a baby V8.

Holy shit that deal on the 20b fd is unreal if you got deep pockets. Ive seen it in person its immaculate shape , only downside is 20b motors are unbelievably expensive to rebuild depending on what breaks since mazda no longer produces any parts for them. Would buy if i didnt already own a fd, transmission 3rd gear syncro prob blew they cant handle high tourque. R154 swap it and flip for 30g lol

You guys clearly have no idea what 912 prices have been doing. They're definitely sought after now.

The how is easy, you're allowed to import vehicles around the regular 15 year rule when you immigrate if your previous citizenship and ownership of the vehicle meet certain requirements.
