This may be a holy grail Toyota Hilux LN106 solid axle 2.8 3L diesel...or not.
I had been looking for a Hilux project for almost a year, I finally found a good one. Typically these do not come up for sale very often down here in Costa Rica and when they do, they typically don't last long on the market. Most are thrashed, abused and dipped in layers of paint, this one is clean.
A two owner truck, not abused and in mostly original condition with the famous 3L diesel, an engine that hits 1,000,000 kilometers, at 292,000km, a verified compression test of 420 per cylinder, means it will offer years of service.
A Stage 2 restoration, using factory paint code color and new weather stripping, plus a few extras for comfort and style has been completed. This is part two of the series and part three will be coming soon.
For those interested in owning this Toyota icon, it is on its way to the US and will be available in April.
