We’re now leaning more to the minibus, but you never know… We would def love a Fuso 4×4 but didn’t find one at all in Canada. We’ll look into the book, Yahoo group, and email address you sent this morning.

Nearby Umfolozi is where I saw my first leopard ever (if my memory serves me correctly). Amazing! Much love to you both.

well what a chore !
Of course part of the problem is you are starting from a point of owning a truly remarkable vehicle already !
The ‘fuso’ as you will no doubt be aware does come as a 4×4.
these guys : Don & Kim Greene
used and wrote this book : https://www.amazon.com/Americas-Overland-Handbook-Donald-Greene/dp/0557007127

probably contact them through ’99daystopanama’ yahoo group

we are now at ‘bushbaby’ near Umfolozi.
slow moving but all very good.

love you both.

In fact, we even considered re-doing the engine and pulling a little caravan, but the problem is that the vehicle is registered for maximum two places, and we really hope we’ll need more soon. 🙂 Anyway, the decision is made and we are at peace with it, just that now there’s a lot of work to do before we can truly get back on the road again!

Really appreciate it! 🙂 Any good vehicles in the Bay Area?

We’re in the Bay Area.

Ford does not have the best reputation after Mexico, especially for the new ones.
If I were you, I would put all the money to convert the LandCruiser as per my needs. Apart from a great engine, its a great chassis for a decent conversion. And it’s so nice to travel with your very own home registered vehicle all around the world!!!!!!!

Love you
