I'm up in Canada, where the cut off line for vehicle imports is 15 years, not 25 like in the US. I could have brought in up to a 1991, but was after total simplicity in a vehicle. With this 47 series, even another 8 months older in build date and the infestation begins: seat belt buzzers, glow plug timers, etc. Still, now that i think about it (and have come to understand my trucks electrical system so much better, I'm wondering if getting a 75 series pickup with 12ht, 5 speed, factory power steering and a/c might not have been a cheaper route to go, and still largely kept the virtues of simplicity (not so much with the a/c mind you).
That said, I am having a lot of fun and learning so much! More pics later today.
