Guest, UPDATE We went through the site migration runbook and completed all steps. We will need to complete the migration next week, but will leave the forums up for the weekend. A few days after maintenance, a major upgrade revision to the forum site will occur.
My goal is the WAY , not a DESTINATION.
Thus I'm focused on adventure and impression what I'll meet for sure visiting and overlanding your beautiful country and other America's countries too.
The tool to choose for this to happen is more or less on the second plan. Still might be exciting to put...
You are right >diabetiktaco< - but those mates fro YT are importing most expensive cars, like Unimogs, Pinzgeuers or G-wagons. I am focused on Y60 highroof PATROL - I doubt anybody in USA would be interested to buy it modified. Origal and perfect - maybe. but not modified.
Maybe I'm wrong...
Rusty they are ;-)
Still SYNCROs keep their value extremely. So there is a point to rescue even most rotten one.
If U need anything for this plan - let me know. Most of the panels and parts are produced here in Poland and cost like nothing...
Hej >Oneleglance<
Very nice rig - this transit. I love those 4x4 vans, modified for overlanding. They much a ton of more potencial.
Still, wouldn't be better to reinstall this radiator we can see on the picture, situated under bumper?
In rocky and desert condition - probably works fine but here...
Yeah, I do think the same. There is no clue to drag my own vehicle or the same brand (model) which is not present on US market. I love JEEPs, FORDS, GMCs a lot :hearteyes: and the only thing is that I don't know them at all.
I also have had plenty of discusions with my US mates - wanted to buy...
I have double checked the subject and this is how it goes.
So short-cut thinking is like - never think of importing a car youger then 21yo. Be very carefull of importing agencies that calim that can do this - IT IS ILLEGAL and Homeland Security agents may just seize Your car if they find out...
Dear >bnyc000< Your american Armada is REALLY equall to Y62 Nissan Patrol that Aussies modify into tough off-road vehicle.
As far as you have 4x4 model (from 60'ties avaiable 4x2 patrols) you have the same rough Patrol gen. Go for australian pages to buy some mods (lift, front locker, bumpers...
I like those old Land Cruisers. For You, mates, real LC enthusiasts it's just like grandpa and grandson in one garage ;-)
I start to want old G60 for me as Nissan Patrol lover...
Yeah, I always say the same: go as far as You can without a rope and turn back because You never know if it's not worse behind the hill ;-)
Better to equip the car with maxtracks, chains, even portable winch/manual kifor - best for overlanding where the WAY is more important then DESTINATION.
Thanks mates.
Very helpful.
I will check and let You know how this goes. I travell once for a while to Palm Beach FL so I'm mostly interested in this State regulations.
Yes, I would import orginal car with factory engine. Actually I intend to purchase it in Philippines due to specification. But...
Thank you >Slimpartywagon<
I know US have some regulations according older cars. Looks like the most reliable models comes into this age (when did it happen ;-)
My concern is only if the owner of vehicle imported in that way has right to make any changes in it....
Might be that those...
Dear OB mates
I want to travel across both Americas and got to consider two options:
- Send my rig to USA
- Import off-road vehicle to USA, register it and drive around on US plates
- Buy the rig in USA
Thus I want to ask You how it is really with 25 year and older car import to US.
Could any...
I do think the same. However new DEF might get different opinion after few years of owning/off-roading. Geometry isn't stupid. Ergonomy eighter. Still suspension idea and plastic everywhere makes her far away from predecessor.
