Vehicle description
Overview:
1981 Toyota pickup (hilux). Original 2.2l Diesel 4 cylinder with 5 speed transmission, rear wheel drive. This truck has been my pride and joy for many years now. Original as they come, very rare to see a diesel hilux in the U.S even more rare to see one in these conditions with original mileage.
This truck spent most of it’s life on a farm in Idaho since new. The original owner passed away and then was inherited by his son. The very low mileage is credited to only being used to haul around hay, light farming materials, and a tow a small aluminum fishing boat. When I purchased the truck was in its original state, very well taken care of with only small dings,surfaces scratches, although no body rust whatsoever. When the restoration began, I wanted nothing less than to restore to original condition with original parts. You will notice a few imperfections for example the ripped vinyl rubber matt and small tear on seat. This is only because toyota does not offer these parts new and after months of sourcing and searching i could not find them new or used anywhere. I figured i would rather leave it as it is than cover with non original carpet, parts, etc. Just the original decals took me two months to track down. No expense was spared, I spent a lot of time and money restoring this truck to my standards with no intentions to sell, although my circumstances have changed.
I have original owners manual one original key, tools and most receipts for all the parts purchased. I did all the work myself with the exception of respraying the truck. For the sake of keeping this as short as possible I will leave out a lot of details, I would be happy to speak to anyone on the phone with any additional questions and provide any additional pictures Lots of pictures below. link for a start up and walk around video of the truck: https:/ youtu.be/-S_Y7cDYFyQ
Exterior:
Beautiful respray, original color paint. 3 coats of base, 3 coats of clear. High quality. Bed was taken off frame and everything was resprayed including door jams, in between the bed and cab. The frame and under body were cleaned up, dried and covered in “Zero rust coating” paint All glass is original with “Teq” logo with the exception of the windshield. Original windshield was cracked when I purchased the truck so it had to be replaced to pass safety. It has only been changed once in it’s life. All new rubber, New door seals, weather stripping, window channel run, etc. all lights, horn, windshield wipers, locks, work great. Tires are old and cracked, they lose air over time. Will need to be replaced.
Interior:
Interior is pretty much original and not much work was done here. Dash is virtually crack free. Interior lights work. Crank windows work great. No A/C, no stereo, no power steering . small tear on drivers side seat , and rubber matt has holes and tears where the feet usually rest. blower motor fixed and cleaned out all vents.
Mechanical :
Engine: Fires up on first flick of the key, great compression. New Toyota timing belt, pulleys, bearings, water pump, glow plugs, diesel filters, air filter, rebuilt original alternator, new batteries and connections. Everything else was only cleaned up and untouched.
Transmission: Shifts fine, new Toyota clutch kit. Fresh mobil 1 gear lube in trans and differential .
Radiator was cleaned in acid bath, New brake lines, shoes, rotors, pads, new clutch master cylinder, repacked wheel bearings, lots of stuff I"m forgetting but would be happy to answer any questions.
Truck is sold as-is. No warranties. Will not entertain low ball offers. Not in a rush to sell. If i can not get what i want or a super reasonable offer. I will keep it. Thank you and good luck !
