Well it looks like i may be in need of a right hand drive rig, was thinking a jeep cherokee or something, obviously getting one from japan would be a safe bet, does anyone know what this entails? Any sources you know of for importing jspec vehicles?

 

jspec cars are available, but registration is a little weird. the STATE has no problem registering the thing, and stock, they do pass smog if needed. the feds will have a problem with it if they get wind of it.



you can actually make the car federally legal, its more of an epensive paper shuffle than it is real work, and i'd suggest using a car that was available here, like the FC/FD cause the crash stuff and lights are the same.

 

what are you delivering mail?

 

Yea i need something higher up and I'm 99% sure since I am working for the fed they'd cut me some slack LOL, but who knows. I would need something like a jeep or pickup the is, errr well mailbox height. Plus it needs to be super reliable

 

Yea, well hopefully I got "tenatively" hired, but i had something with my Merchant Mariner's license that is hanging me up ( i didnt realize they condidered that a branch of the military), but if all goes well yea.

 

yeah if you can reg it thru work, then you're good.... i have no clue why you'd import a JDM toyota truck though...

 

Cause it's low miles and right hand drive, there's nothing in the US that I know of that is right hand drive. Jeep does make them, but i want somemthing used not brand new. That's why i was aking about r/h drive rigs, ie... are there any other sources besides jspec imports.

 

There's a dude on ebay that sells them, they are US spec rhd jeeps exported to japan, then after the 40k or wutever imported back to the US, so that would make sense.

 

get a old postal jeep, I see them for sale for just about nothing all the time.

 

I want something newer, gonna be putting a lot of miles on it.
