Nice rig...

That would be a project in itself just to figure out how to drive a stick w/my left hand!!! So, are the pedals swapped also; meaning they mirror a left hand drive car (gas pedal nearest center and clutch closet to the door)???

 

It took a bit to get used to. Pedals and gears are in the same location but the turn single and winder wipers are flipped... so that goofs me up every time. I'd go to make a turn and the wipers would turn on Then back in my commuter car or the Tundra and same thing

 

Yeah, it seems like you'd be doing the pat your head and rub your tummy thing the entire time you're driving it. However, it's unique, well built and super clean...

GLWS!!!!

 

Really cool truck.
I had a British import 1976 BMW 2002 in the late 80s it was cool getting out on the sidewalk side, getting used to shifting with my left hand wasn't too bad.

GLWS.

 

Was in the market for a LandCruiser but this is pretty neat! If I don't seem to pull the trigger for a LandCruiser I'll most likely jump in this.

 

A bit smaller of a vehicle makes a lot of the Colorado trails easier to navigate that's for sure. The Tundra will limit me quite a bit which I'll miss

 

I swear I've seen this truck before, did you buy it from www.japaneseclassics.com by chance?

Looks great by the way

 

There's been a few coming through. Actually in my smallish town there's another, exact color but auto

 

Siiiiick......GLWS

 

Seeing some interest on FB but nothing solid. One guy said he was going to apply for a loan to get it but haven't heard back. Lots of "what's the lowest you'll go?" and "is this still available.." then:

 

What's the lowest you'll go? Is it still available?!














Just kidding, sweet surf, glws

 

Very Cool! Hear the diesels are slow, but the manual is the one to get IMO. Not that the 183hp gassers are race cars

GLWS

 

They're a little gutless that's for sure. Torquey but still a

 

Monday bump

 

Bump bump, I know someone wants this sweet rig!

 

Bunch more FB messages of "Is this available" then they go bye bye. Someone also asked how much it can tow... told them it's not the kind of a diesel you're thinking..

 

Pending

 

Super pretty truck!

 

Everyone wants the older gens, with a five speed, wishes they could get a diesel, want sub-100k miles and clean. Well, Here it is! Where is everyone? GLWS OP!!

 

Show us the undercarriage!

 

I've also had it up on FB marketplace, received probably 150-170 messages since posting. Most just asking if it's available, some asking detailed questions, some looking for trades and some just offering laughable lowball offers. 1 guy was out here while his girlfriend did some medical clinical stuff, both are from Louisiana. He sent me a message and came by while on his way back south, drove it, loved it, wanted it but would need it shipped to LA. I was skeptical at first but we solidified a plan that was risk free for both of us. Scheduled this week to head to its new home

And of course since I had it pending, shortly after I had a cash offer from a guy who was waiting to close on his house. He said he never reached out since he wasn't a right then and there buyer.. Poor guy missed it by a few days. He also has a RHD Toyota Soarer, honestly would have liked to sell it to him being he more so wanting a collector.. but hopefully the new owner will enjoy it as much as I did
