There are many options too..remember this will be more like a Humvee then a the current H1 due to GM trademarks and agreements.. but the changes on the exterior are minimal..as Drew mentioned above..and it does come in about three boxes I think is was...



anyways the information will continue to flow as we were the first focus group..I believe these first 50 units will fly off the shelves...as soon as they start taking the deposits..

This is the information that I have been able to find about Kit cars being imported into Canada.. took this information off the Transport Canada Website..





Amateur building of kit cars from imported starter kits

Is a starter kit a car or parts? Shipment contents provide useful clues, and each import is considered on its own merits. TC may ask for a complete parts list (not including attachment hardware).



In a parts shipment/starter kit, important systems such as the fuel system, the brake system, the power train and the suspension system are not included.



When these systems are completely absent, the kit will likely pass Customs if:


  • the kit is not assembled (the body and frame are separate);
  • the wiring harness, steering system and interior parts are not installed (with the possible exception of the windshield, some trim and the instrument panel).
Importing a starter kit

TC suggests that you research and visit the company that is manufacturing your kit and make sure that the kit will clear Customs before you make any payments.



If you plan to build your own car using an imported starter kit, you can make clearing Customs easier if you:


  • Have the manufacturer fax send you an exact packing list of the parts that will be in the container when it reaches Canada Border Services Agency (CBSA) and fax it to TC before you buy the kit.
  • Make sure the list:
    • has a number on each page that will correspond with the import documents;
    • has the manufacturer's name in the letterhead; and
    • exactly matches the packing list supplied with the shipment and the parts that will be in it.
    Since you are importing parts only, you will need a detailed list of every part, as you would get from any parts counter, including part numbers (except nuts, bolts, washers, clips, fasteners, etc., which can be listed together). TC will not accept a list of parts that are deleted from a kit.



    Note: Importing a kit from a private sale can pose a problem, but TC will review the parts list without part numbers and determine each case on its own merits.
  • Fill out and sign the declaration form you will find at the end of this document and fax it and the parts list to 613-998-8541.



    If TC considers that the parts on the list do NOT add up to a motor vehicle that can be certified, you will receive a form letter to present to CBSA. The letter will state that the shipment is admissible as "parts only" and that no other shipments may follow.

Yup, I will verify this news. When we arrived at the hotel on Wednesday night, Dereks face was red with excitment, thought for sure he was going to explode with the news. Somehow though, he managed to keep it in until the next day when we were at the AM General track facilities where they announced it. There were smiles all round. Greenmeanie was lit up like a light bulb, could almost see the gears spinning to figure out how he could pull off getting one (or 10 LOL) Derek was beaming, and everyone was REALLY excited, even us H2 guys!! <img src='http://www.canadianhummerclub.com/forum ... rgreen.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':mrgreen:' />
