Second, it's crazy to consider getting a bumpside truck new in 1992. It's like its an alternate universe.

Third, I can't imagine driving my truck with a four cylinder engine!

Fourth, I can't decide if it's easier or harder for you to get parts. Easier because these trucks are essentially "newer" harder because you're farther from US parts distributors.

Anyway, welcome!

Cheers,
Duane

First of all, thank you.

Second, it is an alternate universe. Here, our first truck with factory a/c and automatic transmition was available after 1992. Can you guys believe that before that, power steering, a/c, automatic trans or even the heater box were not available for or trucks?

Third, you are right, the four cylinder truck was terrible.

Fourth, like i said, we don't have that kind of parts for trucks from that age. Thats why i am buying from Usa.
FOr example, Here, there is no power steering gearbox that fits in a three on tree.

Those are just too cool. I would love to get one of those up here, but almost impossible, and then there is the California smog regulations to deal with...

Twenty years with the same body style. VolksWagen did the same with the beetle and Kombi and Russians did the same with that trash called Lada.

They are cool but the engine is for tractors.

Here, we are importing classic cars from other countries. But the taxes and duties are 160% over the car+shipping cost.

This is a 1990 6-in-line for sale: http://carro.mercadolivre.com.br/MLB-59 ... solina-_JM
