Good morning my name is Bud Hepburn and I live just outside Toronto and this could be an ideal candidate for me since you are so close to the border although it will still seem difficult till the border opens up. Can you supply more pics and asking price so I can evaluate the car. I would like to see pics of the interior as well as all of the other areas. I have wanted one for 50 years and this just might be it. I am assuming that it has a proper registration etc. Maybe a zoom call or face time could be arranged as well. looking forward to more info. Thanx

Hi Thehaz,

Is your Europa still for sale?

Cheers.

[thehazz]

Thank you all for the wonderful welcome and the great advice and knowledge. This vehicle sale is pending.

[Bud]

I am buying this car and just waiting for paperwork to be completed so I can get it across the border and into Canada. Going to be a lot of work but it is a TIME CAPSULE and will be a great project to keep me busy for a while. I may have to lean on some people for advise every so often and there are a lot of resources on this site

Congratulations, Bud! I look forward to hearing about the progress on your new baby! 

[Bainford]

Congrats Bud. Be sure start a thread with pics when it arrives. Looking forward to seeing more. Cheers

Bud, Welcome. I am planning a trip in my Europa to Guelph once the lock down is over. PM me if you would like a visit.

Welcome aboard!

Well this car is finally coming home after a dazzling 10 gruelling months of having to deal with the DMV in NYS and their total incompetence.
When it comes in, I will toast to the perseverance of the seller and buyer not to give up and walk away. The seller is an awesome individual and I couldn't have picked a better person to work with

[BDA]

I'm glad to hear your sale went well even if the delivery was difficult. I'm looking forward to seeing pictures of your baby!

Congratulations!  Also looking forward to more photos.

May your chassis be free from rot,
Your engine loosen with a bit of Mystery oil,
And, your tranny be leak free!
