About the 1999 Mitsubishi Minicab

Mitsubishi launched the Minicab in 1966 and kept it in the range for decades, making it one of the older continuously-built kei trucks. The engine is recorded as the 3G83, a Mitsubishi design from the company's own kei engine range. Seating for 4, with the engine under the bench and the load area taking everything behind it.

Buying this 1999 Minicab Van

Square sides on a 340cm × 148cm footprint make the load area far more usable per cubic metre than the outside size suggests. A 1999 build date puts this one well past the 25-year federal import threshold. It is listed at $4,570.
