oukippy Posted April 26, 2018 Author Report Share Posted April 26, 2018 It's funny, we have the same scam in France except it's a French speaking african country. The best way to avoid them is to use website which are acting as third party for payment. The buyer put the money on the website and the money is transfered when the buyer scan the seller QRcode to start the payment. Cost is approximatively $40. Do you have the same kind of website (the website is owned by a bank or insurance company ) ? 1 Quote Link to comment

I contacted the owner of this one: https://losangeles.craigslist.org/wst/cto/d/1978-datsun-620-extended-cab/6576199131.html He seems to be a very interesting guy ! I like his style and hope the 620 is in good condition !!! Quote Link to comment

I could buy it but not bring it back to France :-) I found this one, non-stock but wellmade in my opinion. Just need to know what was done with the engine ! https://bakersfield.craigslist.org/cto/d/74-datsun-clean-title-4speed/6576279700.html 1 Quote Link to comment

Charlie69 Posted May 4, 2018 Report Share Posted May 4, 2018 At 6' 1" do yourself a favor and purchase a King Cab truck. They are out there. Quote Link to comment
oukippy Posted May 4, 2018 Author Report Share Posted May 4, 2018 Yes, that was my initial plan but I was amazed by the work done on the blue one. It's probably better that it's sold, I will concentrate on KC ! 1 Quote Link to comment

frank88 Posted May 6, 2018 Report Share Posted May 6, 2018 I recommended cfr rinkens because they will deal with the shipping and the escrow service in terms of checking the legal paperwork/vin numbers and transferring the money as well as picking it up on a trailer. Trying to do it separate is going to be too difficult and you'll be looking forever. I only say because I've done it. There is some risk in buying and trusting the seller in terms of condition of the car but at the end of the day you're buying a vehicle thousands of miles away over the internet! 1 Quote Link to comment
oukippy Posted May 6, 2018 Author Report Share Posted May 6, 2018 I didn't know that they are doing the transaction part. I will probably send them an email. I was plannin g to work with french guys in USA, it could be a good alternative. 1 Quote Link to comment
Draker Posted May 6, 2018 Report Share Posted May 6, 2018 I saw that red kc 620 that was in the same area. It's still for sale for 3500. It has a good amount of rust by low the better tray. It's a really cool truck, but probably not a good export candidate. 1 Quote Link to comment

It's a really cool truck, but probably not a good export candidate. If you talk about the one in Salem, I thought it was the one for me and had it inspected by a professional. The mechanics and interior were very good but there was too much rust. I asked 4 or 5 guys in France what it could cost to repair and paint, most of them didn't want to do it at all because of rust. The only one who answered gave me a quote like $ 10 000. I like 620's enough to import one to France but that's too much money... 2 Quote Link to comment
oukippy Posted May 7, 2018 Author Report Share Posted May 7, 2018 What do you think about this one? https://sfbay.craigslist.org/pen/cto/d/1979-datsun-620-pickup-truck/6570874591.html Odometer and speedo not working but it should be a cable problem. Not original paint... 1 Quote Link to comment
racerx Posted May 7, 2018 Report Share Posted May 7, 2018 Looks like a good start. Not far from my house 1 Quote Link to comment
