All,

Any idea on if one can legally import and drive a bus (split bus pre 1967 model) manufactured in Brazil after 1967? I have looked at a few 1968-1975. If I were to import my own bus what pitfalls, check lists should I make sure to get done to make vehicle legal and if someone has imported the vehicle what should I do to make sure it remains legal?

Thanks a bunch!

I know it can be done but I would first be very concerned about the condition of the vehicle before I even considered logistics. Many of the South American busses lived VERY hard lives, unless what you're looking at is a rare unmolested example or one that has extensive documentation of a high quality restoration, I would pass.
