General Information
I bought this truck out of Arkansas in March 2009, from a local Online Trader site (Auto Trader Classics). After making a $10 deposit on PayPal, I sent an Internet buddy from near Houston to drive across and check it out for me, as it was not possible for me to view the truck myself. The truck was seen, a deal was made and money handed over. Transported across country to Long Beach, Ca, the truck was then loaded into a container bound for New Zealand.
Unbeknownst to me, it travelled in the same container as a '78 Dodge Ram Pickup, bought by another Kiwi guy, who I didn't know at the time. This guy has turned into my best friend, and also my Number 1 guy for all things mechanical. Cliff "MowPar" and I have been working on vehicles together now ever since, and it was he who provided the expertise in reviving this older engine transplant and bringing the A100 to life.
