Absolutely. The Japanese-market and Down-under vans are Liteace (sorry about the original misspelling due to brainfade), and I have seen these badged LE in Canada. Have seen them in car-chase shows from the US also. The Hiace likewise is definitely a cabover design, we have plenty of Japanese-market examples here. Yoshi could confirm. Don't know what you're getting in Europe, perhaps some export-only vans fitted with Liteace and Hiace badges. Never haeard of "Model F"; sure this isn't a rebadged very old Ford? Andrew |
