I would suggest you order lots of stuff at once and have it shipped to the business on the attached pic. They will even store a vehicle in an enclosed compound for you. Seeing you are in Alberta all you have to pay is GST on the Canadian dollar value of the goods you are importing. If you buy 2000.00US worth of parts and with the current exchange rate of 30/33% you'd have to pay 5% GST on about 2650.00 which is only 132.50.. Some US suppliers like Summitt Racing have free shipping within the USA on any order over 100.00.. Just a thought, do you really want to leave your truck in a foreign country for a restoration and come back to check on it everyonce in awhile? You would also have to pay GST on the Canadian dollar equivalent cost of the restoration. Here are a couple of Canadian suppliers I've used that are great..
