Hi Travis, Sounds interesting. What car model are you looking for ? There are some already well known importers writing at the www.minitrucktalk.com forum. These importer/exporters do handle most time with Kei-Car trucks, but I assume they will so other cars as well. Are there age restrictions in canada like they are in the states ? Cheers, Daniel
