Well, my Spanish is NOT rudimentary - I've been speaking, reading and writing the language for over 60 years now. And as I said, there is NO mention of importation in the document you cite (and which claimed mention you decline to copy to this forum). Please copy the part about importation and post it here...
Again, the link you cite:
https://bit.ly/2FwRJj7
...has no mention whatsoever about importation.
Nor is there anything highlighted in the link you provide, and not in any link when searching for the document No. 027-DIR-2014-ANT. Perhaps you could explain where the highlighting is by providing a link that shows highlighting?
This page says that the only people who can import a vehicle into Ecuador are registered importers, and also "personas con discapacidad, diplomáticos y vehículos que forman parte de programas del Ministerio de Transporte y Obras Publicas":

This page which is an official page of the Aduanas (Customs) of Ecuador, the infamous SENAE, states that only Ecuadorian citizens returning to Ecuador to live may import a vehicle only as part of their menaje de casa, and there are strict limits even then:

Your failure to post or point to anything that says you as a foreigner can import your 35 year old car, invalidates your claims. The document you say that allows it, has NO mention whatsoever about importation, contrary to what you claim.
This article from 2016 in a Quito newspaper repeats what the other links say about importation of vehicles:

You may think you know more than the Ecuadorian bureaucracy, and perhaps you do - but THEY still get the last word.
