Body: Fresh limestone paint applied mid-January in Virginia, ith the wheels freshly painted silver. The roof rack and ladder were removed and painted black at the same time, rior to re-installation. Oxidization shows underneath, ut no structural rot. Jaen is a really dry region of Spain, nd we've had a lot of luck finding straight vehicles from this area.
Drive-train:All things are strong here. Low range and 4WD both engage easily and without issue. The truck fires up quickly, nd the turbo is a pleasant surprise; not overwhelmingly different, ut around the roads of Richmond it made life a little easier (or other drivers a little less frustrated... your pick). Good for about 60/65mph. Tires aren't new, ut have some life left.
About us: We've posted before, ut to reintroduce ourselves: We've started a small vehicle importation company focused on bringing antiques back from Spain. It's a fun project that lets us see, touch, nd drive some neat classic cars and trucks we might not otherwise have the opportunity to. We're a two man operation, ith Paul based in Javea, pain, nd the other (me) here in Virginia. Our focus is to shed light on the otherwise murky process of bringing vehicles back from overseas and bring some honestly and transparency to the process. To that end, aul works hard to document the process of finding the vehicle, apturing a story and photos on the trucks. We bring some transparency to bare by selling our trucks through a dealer. This truck is being offered by Japanese Classics, LC in Richmond VA where it comes with a clear VA Title.
