Mac - won't take long to meet some friends with a rig like that!!! Check out the expedition exchange fellas they are in So. Cal somewhere, SWEET RIG! Tell us how you came to have her??????????

Bidaloos origin

The pics are in a port in Manchester UK. I bought the rig in York UK. The landy was built on a 62 Series IIA registration V5 Document in the UK itself. It had been on the road as such for a while and I happened to come across it on a trip there. Bought it, had it shipped over and its registered as such in Ohio. Will soon be moved to CA.

[Machaiah]

CA smogging?

Awesome looking truck!

Question on the CA smogging. We're going over to the UK in April and I would to find an ex-military or otherwise defender but everyone keeps telling me it's almost impossible to get smogged in California - how did you do it?

Thanks,
Drew

Its titled in Ohio. its registered as 1962 and its exempt. Not sure what its in CA ? Does anyone know if certain vehicles older than some years are exempt.
Its a diesel vehicle so does that make a difference?
any one know?
