Hey Everyone! Just picked up a 2000 minicab. After about a year of wanting one I finally decided this spring I would attempt to import one. By pure luck back in February I had bought a computer off of craigslist and the gentleman had this little sitting in his driveway when I went to pick it up. I had asked if he would consider selling it and was stoked when he said that he would but would give me a call when he got back from vacation. Fast forward to this week and I was finally able to go scoop it up. Truck is in really decent shape aside from some issues with the 4WD and H/L not wanting to work that I hope I can figure out before winter comes around as I would definitely want to be able to drive it year round. Initially I bought it for doing trash runs but after driving it today I think I'll be driving it around town a bit once I get it inspected which may or may not be a pita if there is no way of connecting it to the computer during inspection. Thanks in advance for any thoughts/advice you guys might have for me along my journey into the mini truck hobby.
