5 Q:

I am looking to purchase a car from the US that has a salvage
title.  It has not yet been repaired as I will do the work myself then
have it inspected and registered in Canada.  Is this possible to do? 
Can you help me with this process and where do we start? Thank you!
A:

We do this all the time.
You will need INVOICE , SALVAGE TITLE, Recall Letter, and Insurance Apprisal to be able to start the importation procedure. Most important is Insurance Apprisal - it includes a list of all things to be done on the vehicle to successfully repair it( Parts list and labour ).
That Insurance Apprisal should be recovered from insurance company which apprised vehicle of your choice after the accident.

Rest is easy you import this vehicle as regular vehicle except you cannot drive it.

To finish repairs here in Canada you have upto 1 full year. After repairs are done you have to get a Structural Certificate from a body shop. Structural Certificate is a proof that vehicle is ready to be driven on the road and vehicle is upto manufacturer specs.
At last : Safety Certificate , Emission Test, RIV inspection and that is it.

WHAT WE CAN DO FOR YOU?

-buy vehicle for you and resell it here in Canada and you can do all repairs by yourself

or

- import vehicle to Canada ( that includes :shipping and customs clearance) , you are the purchaser and you do all repairs by yourself.

- advise on choice of body shop

Q:

  4. We take care of your vehicle transportation to the border, storage at the border ( if required ), border crossing, delivery to GTA or any were in Southern Ontario.

We charge up to $750 CAD for full service. We will lower this price for your custom vehicle importing needs.

We charge less if You want our dealer come to meet you at the border and assists you with customs clearance. That will cost you only - $350.00 CAD for economic service. In this case You drive vehicle by yourself from USA to your Home.

Most of the time we charge $500.00 CAD for half way service if our dealer meet you at the canadian border and you drive your vehicle to your home. In this case we do take responsibility for arrangements of transportation to canadian border, storage, customs clearance, we pay TAXES, DUTIES, and RIV on your behalf. We assist you with RIV inspection. We will not modify your car to pass that inspection. Your local auto mechanic can fix you with daytime running lights or child restraint hook.

You pay us back taxes and duties, RIV after you get your vehicle delivered.
