Exporting a 1983 240d to Canada?

Hi,

Anybody have recent experience of exporting a car from the US to Canada?

I was in Vermont(I live in Canada) last weekend and a relative gave me a sweet, low mileage, rust-free 1983 240d! I nearly died when I found it sitting in the barn. We dragged it outside, pumped up the tires, gave it a boost and it fired up instantly. It runs and drives like new with only 173k miles on it. I'm planning on going down in a few weeks and driving it up here. So far, I have been told to get the paperwork to US Customs 72 hrs in advance and not sure what the Canada Customs expect.....

Also thinking of transplanting a 300td motor into it?(mabe that's for another thread in the appropriate spot)

Thanks,

Pete
