and cannot see anything about antique vehicles (25 yrs plus) exempt from duty. Can you confirm where you got this info?

If that's the case, it's a great time to buy an 82!

Hi,

I got the info from importing 4 cars into Canada.

When I did the first one, that is what I was told, that there is a little known rule, that over 25 years it is considered a antique by the Customs Officer who did the paperwork and I have mentioned that every other time I have brought one up and payed 0% duty.

They were imported under classification # 80703.23.00.51 (same number off two of the receipts I have handy)

Which if you look it up, has to do with the number of cyls and the interior volume. But my Customs receipt shows 0% duty.....
