    Amsterdam to East coast shipper recommend?

    Like the title says. Got one? RORO is fine, but I’ll chat with a container guy as well. I’d like a phone number with a contact (I guess I’m old school) than just a link to a website. Also, if you have a customs broker that you have and would recommend, I’m listening. I’ve talked to a couple...

    Insuring a grey market vehicle.

    Fellow Cruiserheads, Ok, a bit of a backstory. I came across a '91 HDJ-80 on Craig's List, and was very intrigued. Interestingly enough, it was advertised by a member on here, Chris Spaulding. I saw and drove the truck, made the deal, and had the truck transported down to Charlotte. I...

    PUBLIC SAFETY ANNOUNCEMENT: Do not try to register a non-USDM diesel in CA

    This is a warning, and is based on my own experiences as well as conversations with CARB, CA DMV, CA BAR, the EPA, several JDM importers, and a reading of sections 44202 and 44210 of the California Health and Safety Code. I am not a lawyer. The out-of-state title exemption apparently no longer...

    USA -> CAN. Going the other way. Questions.

    This topic comes up often, but a lot of cruisers make there way down from Canada instead of going up. Long story shot, I'm a Canadian working in California until October. Seeing so many rust-free cruisers down here has definitely accelerated my love for them, specifically FJ60s. I don't have one...

    FJ vs. BJ value in United States?

    Quick question to anyone who has an opinion. I am looking at importing a couple of BJ43s from Europe. Everything else equal - do the Diesel BJs have the same value in the U.S. as an FJ? Or, do they for some reason carry a discount or premium. Many thanks in advance.
