$46.6K '68 Charger R/T Tariff Bill

Saw this on another forum. Just a heads up for Canadians buying vintage cars from the US. The law regarding this should not have been so buried that the average Joe can't find the regulation easily.

Do you home work! Knowledge is power. I believe in fair tariff's both ways. But still a money grab by the Governments. In the back of my mind. If I'm thinking it some politician is thinking it. That there going to implement a Classic car Tax!

Yup. He did some, just not enough. Even so, that regulation shouldn't have been so obscure that it "even took the CBSA over 2 days" (~2:50 mark) to find out why he was charged and several days for the news staff to get that info.

I get that there needs to be certain tariffs in place but the tariff on that car is nothing more than a money grab by the government.
The guy is 77 years old and wants his dream car, let it through without penalty. The man's paid more than his fair share of taxes at that age.

Seems this got sorted out BUT things can still change come April 2.

All tactical. Nothing else to whin about tariffs big deal. Stuff doubled or more last few years. Be patient.
