    Oh no it has a Trasharoo but just didn't put it on for the post build pics...
    But it went on as soon as I got home
    And it went on way more easily than before since I could swing the tire out for install.

    Those are amazing rigs!

    How was it allowed into the US as a 1994?

    If there is a new way to import vehicles under 25 years of age, you guys have a world of options that just opened up !

    All I know is the gentleman I bought it from had a legal and valid Florida title and when I ran a carfax report it showed that it came into the USA through Customs in 2009.
    When I brought it to Arizona I went to Emissions for Testing, they say 1994 Landcrusier and I told'em it was a diesel. No problem passing that test.
    Then when I went to MVD the lady went out and double checked the VIN and came back in and issues my title & registration.

    So far no issues....however the new owner will have to work out things in their own state.

    yeah I am running into issues being an left leg below the knee amputee and driving a manual trans...
    It seems I am messing my hamstring and residual muscle tissue causing cramps.

    So I am entertaining offers of trade or cash to see this rig go to someone who can enjoy shifting more than me

    I'm sorry to hear that - you put a lot of work into the truck to get it fine tuned to your liking. I know I'm speaking to the font of knowledge on the subject of accessibility, but there aren't any options/modifications available to make shifting easier for a BKA?

    Wow. That would make it 15 years old when the fellow imported it. I have people that would die to know how to import a 15yr old rig into the US. Would you be able to either post or pm me his contact info and if he does California and Arizona as well? Cheers
