    Picking Up a '70 2.2 S in Nova Scotia

    Greetings...

    I just discovered and purchased a '70 911S in Nova Scotia. I wasn't really looking for another car but this one was so reasonably priced that I couldn't resist. I'm told it's rust free and stock, except Webers have been installed in place of the MFI (the MFI components are still with the car).

    The plan is for a friend of mine to fly to Halifax, pick up the car, and drive it back to the Philadelphia area. One issue is that car has been sitting under a cover in a dealership for five years. It's been started and driven a short distance one or two times a year. And it just passed the Provincial inspection and I'm told it drives well and runs smoothly.

    What should we concerned about in preparing it for the drive? Is there reason to worry that various seals and gaskets have dried out in the past five years?

    Also, it appears that a car more than 25 years old is exempt from most of the red tape involved in importing a car from Canada to the U.S. -- is that correct?

    Thanks for your advice.

    Regards,
    John Audette
