A car lot/junk yard in Ivor is sellin’ these things.

I’d drive it for errands ‘n such. The tailgate ‘n sides fold down to make a flat bed. Just way too expensive for a toy.

I tried to bring a Mitsubishi three wheel pick up back from japan in '74 and was told they weren't legal in the US of A.  Three years laer I was driving one around the McDonnell Douglas plant as a on-site utility vehicle.  Had some little four wheelers, too.  Looked a lot like this beastie.

They have a manufacturing plant over the line in Oklahoma just over from Ft. Smith,

look like they'd be fun to have,, I know they were looking for people to open dealerships this last spring.
