Yes but it require a lot of money to pay for the transport, customs fees, the canadian taxe on the vehicle… and yes i live in Quebec… here the regularization and the automotive bureaucracy are pretty terrible: If it is a 25 years + cars we need to make an evaluation to be able to transfer the car (the evaluation is for the automotive bureau who want to know on what prize tax the car, by example, you pay the car 1000$ but the evaluation tells your car worth 2000$, you pay the tax on 2000$, the evaluation cost 150-200$), plus you need to pass a technical inspection (150-200$ x2 because they never let you pass the test the first time -_-)… when you add all the fees and the troubles, it costs you 3-4000$ to put a car buy in the us on the road (that you pay 1000-1500$). I had the idea to buy one of your california/nevada rust free car but it is less complicated to repair a car cut in half by rust than pass true all the slow, expensive, retarded, inhuman quebec's bureaucracy system

Wow, I guess I can never again complain about our crazy California bureaucrats and regulations. Quebec sounds like the old USSR. But I digress. Awesome and very commendable work on the Concord!

Thanks :)
Now I start to rebuild the interior! Loool not much as the old USSR but if you see the 12 works of Asterix, the Quebec Bureaucracy looks like the Crazy's house haha! For one worker, sou have 10 boss and the bosses never communicate, so you get dumb regularization. In quebec, this very hard to build a hot rod because of this… the official document who explain what's legal or not do do on a car make over 150 pages…

Wish I had the resources to save my old 81 Concord and 85 Eagle like you did with this car. Both died from rust issues. Manitoba also uses lots of salt but not as much as Ontario or Quebec. Looks like someone changed the engine in your car at some point to a 1981 or newer.
