Hey Bill...

Ultima GTR 720... But a huge change of events! I sent the check and got all of the paper work including the signed MSO by the mfr. Had everything in place and was working with the dealer to schedule the shipment of the car to NH. In the pkg with my ownership papers was a document that the US Customs and EPA sent to the original owner of the car stating that import of the car from Cota Rica to the states was with understanding and mandate that the car and/or drive train could NEVER be titled and registered for highway use in the United States. You can imagine with level of nausea that bought.... I had just purchaced a car that I could never title without the possibility of huge fines and confiscation of the car. I worked it out with the dealer, cancelled payment on the check and still trying to find some way around this EPA thing. The owner just figured the car could be sold as a race car and that would be that. I don't have much hope of that working out right now and back to looking for something else! It in one cool ride though!
