The idea is that I plan on driving it to the states and essentially leaving it there which whoever the owner is.

Yes, its Dayle, the reason its Dayle is that he's been extremely nice and I've been talking to him since last october about the car - Also, he got burned for a 1000.00 deposit that he sent to the previous owner who promised he'd drive the car down to him, and yet did not.

I know Earl tried to get doofus out in Vancouver to get the car registered for over 2 years but the guy just simply did not want to do it.

Earl and I have made peace and there doesn't seem to be any bad blood, both of these guys really deserve the car - I want it to go to someone who will respect it for what it is, and take care of it.

I don't see much of an issue with me being able to drive it across the border, getting something on the other side and returning in it.

So now that you all know its Dayle and Earl, and have a bit more history on both of them being burned whats your take?

Re: People to watch out for

I say, cut the car in half and they each get a half....



In true sappy TV fashion, we now wait to see who is the first to say "No don't cut it... Give it to ______, I'd rather have it go to him then see it destroyed..."

That is the person who truly deserves the car...

The car should go to Earl... He put so much time and effort into getting that car the first time, only to have it sold out from under him by a lousy seller.

Does it have copious amounts of exhaust rattles?? If so, Hocrest is your man

Re: People to watch out for

why not the buyer who is willing to spend the most money?

Capitalism?

Re: People to watch out for

It looks like a really nice car.

Whoever gets an option on it should be under no illusion that it would be easy to get the car past type approval into the US and legally registered.

Years of red tape pain I would say, with no guarantee of official acceptance at the end of the tunnel. It will be a brave person with deep pockets that will take this on.

It must surely be easier to buy a VTD drivetrain and TCU and fit it to a US silver car and paint the flanks mid grey. You would end up with a LHD Japanese market car. Much cheaper and quicker than import approval.

You pays your money...

Nobody has mentioned the obvious solution yet: Ultimate Fighting Cage Battle for the SVX.

I have another way around importing issues... Couple VIN plates and a clean title can fix that
