About ten years ago I was at a micro car meet with a friend who had an 850 Mini. We were having a chat with a guy who had a Goggo-mobile and he mentioned he had a 1400GX powered right hand drive Sunny pick-up...what we know as a Ute , well low and behold while going through some old books last night I found the guys flier and I plan to ring him up. The number is ten years old but I found the guy on the internet and he is still active so I will keep you posted , shriek in horror if you like but it may get rallied if I get a hold of it. ( I promise not to roll it)

I've only seen just one in person. It was at the Japanese Classic Car Show a few months back. Nice looking, but I'm not sure I could fit in one. They are pretty small.

Bear in mind that this is coming from a guy who is restoring/modifying a Morris Minor Van.

there was a ute at the last mt. shasta meet. It was red and there is a couple of pics of it on the dimequarterly site. I talk to the guy and he had just had it for a while he is located in so cal and what he says is some one brought it up from either guatamala or el salvador, and are left hand drive. to get a ute would be sweet...

DDGONZAL........that is the car , don't even know if he is willing to part with it. Hopefully I will find out soon enough.
My classic Volvo looks to be sold and my Rally car is a Mitusbishi , a make I have never been fond of , so I need a classic.
The Ute would fill the bill nicely as our Rally car's main use us a course opening car at our event. Plus won't my Vintage Motocross bike look good being hauled in a Ute!!!

PS sorry to gum up this site with stuff from obscure countries like the USA.
