Re: Bringing Cars Into Canada

[Gerry Peters <gpeters35@xxxxxxx>]

to clarify you need only fax a copy of the title to the American border 
station 72 hrs before crossing back into Canada / there is no way for the 
purchaser to even see the copy of the title till he shows up with the 
original/the Americans file by vin number/ the 72 hr thing is to allow the 
American border service to check for liens and stolen vehicles . if they are 
not too busy they may be able to process faster. i know because i came back 
across at pembina nd with a new quad at 3.00 pm today
