I got three words.... BIG HEAVY TRUCKS!

Do these prices include all the importation fees? So in other words these prices are for the trucks as-is in SoCal?

I have been told this truck is for sale for the price of $15k. See here, http://www.expeditionportal.com/forum/threads/110804-1975-712m-6x6-ex-Racing-Pnzgauer-aka-The-Warn-Pinz?p=1354292#post1354292

No worries. I have seen a lot of trucks from a lot of countries. JDM can be very good, but myself I just don't want RHD. And yes I have had a few. I would rather take a JDM truck and convert it to LHD using a US spec Cruiser. I am not up and up on Canada and what they got for Cruisers so maybe...

Unfriggin' believable trip! To think that Patrol was parked in my driveway and is now in Africa. Just awesome!! :Wow1: I always enjoy the amazing pictures and updates. Cheers

Great stuff, thanks for sharing!

Yes I have long term experience with air bags. I had two different brands and sets in my 04 Tacoma. Each set did a trip to Panama and back with heavy loads, the Taco weighed 6,000lbs. The first trip was 15,000 miles and the second 10,000. The first set were Airlifts and total junk. They have...

And many Nissan Patrols.... http://www.encuentra24.com/panama-en/cars-auto-trucks-used-car#search=keyword.patrol|f_make.nissan which FYI, these Patrols are 50% to 75% less $$$ than say in Australia. Also in Australia the TD42 diesel is a bit rare and demands a premium price. All this has to do...

How do you get that it is beat from 2 pictures? And 300k is 186,000 miles. Panama is in Central America not South America. It is also one of the richest countries in CA. Panama and Costa Rica battle for the number one richest country in CA year to year these days. Having been down in Latin...

No I wasn't kidding. I have done my research and then some. :) Cost about $2k to drive it to the US, pretty fun trip too! Buying power of the US dollar and solid trucks cans till be found out there. Cheers

Telling this to a guy who has done as much importing as me seems kind of....I don't know, like stating the obvious. My point was, why import when you can get as good here if not better? If you just want to be different no worries, by all means. I imported because I like the trucks and have...

My point was simply that you can get a superior trans for the same kind of money. And it is also just my opinion.

It is not a big deal but isn't cheap. I have had a lot sent to me from Australia, New Zealand and Colombia (S.A.). For at least 6yrs now, shipping has killed it. I had a 5spd trans air mailed to me from Oz last summer, cost was $500 in shipping on a trans that cost $1000. So it ended up being...

Looking good man, looking good!

Very nice!! I will look for it around town. And my offers till stands for a cold beer. ;)

Congrats and welcome to the club! I have some 62 parts (work on 60's) if you need anything. I have no axle stuff though. Cheers

Fantastic! Congrats on the quest for the right truck. Spain is certainly a good country in Europe to import from. I dig the upgrades and mods, the axles are killer! I like it better on 37's and looks like those may even rub. I also liked the stock 80's graphics, always dig the retro ones from...

Great picture! So they had the 3L TD with intercooler then? I have driven the 3L in a SWB and a 4.8L petrol in a wagon. Both were great but the 3L diesel didn't wake up real fast, bit of lag. I also drove a wagon with a 3L (auto) and definitely more sluggish than in the SWB with a 5spd. 4.8L...

Why would I freak out? They are your kids.... I didn't think any states allowed that anymore. Goes to show what I know.

I actually need the plate at the back of the engine and the bellhousing from a Scout. The Patrol stuff is different. I bought my SD33T to NV4500 kit from IHonly and have also got a quote from them on a new NV4500 (with my kit fitted) and an Atlas behind that plus all the stuff from the back of...
