Yes, BC is just a tad too far away.

You can do a search here on CC as this topic has been discussed several times. Basically you cannot bring a kit car into Canada as it does not meet Federal regulations (no air bags, no crash testing etc). However, you can import car parts so you must absolutely make sure that you are importing car parts. The best way to do this is not to bring everything in at the same time as some bone head in Canada Customs can make a decision that this is a car that is in pieces. You will have to contact someone in the know as to what is required at the provincial level to get the car inspected and licenced.

One tip. Do not try to contact Transport Canada to get information from them. They are clueless and will actually try to stop you from going ahead with this project. Do your homework then have some fun.
