Known popularly as the Toyota Hilux, Toyota's compact-sized pickup truck entered the global market in 1968 and has been on sale ever since. It graduated to the mid-size segment in 2004 and has fostered a reputation for being famously unkillable. If you don't believe us, Jeremy Clarkson tried to kill one and failed. That's why you should seriously consider this 1981 Toyota Pickup ½ Ton that we've got for sale. It's ideal for your rough-and-tumble duties, as it will never let you down as long as you look after it, which is simple and cheap, as it's an old Toyota, after all. Furthermore, the condition of this truck leads us to believe that it's been subjected to a comprehensive restoration on the outside, inside, undercarriage, and mechanicals.
Exterior and Interior
Sporting a blue paint job, this 1981 Toyota Pickup ½ Ton looks in pristine order. It also enjoys some distinctiveness from the crowd due to its Cragar wheels that the current owner reports to be wrapped in new tires. The headlamps appear to be more contemporary, crystal-light units. There are some tasteful graphics elements on the hood, and the long bed presents itself in good nick too. A peek at the undercarriage reveals a similarly pristine outlook. The blue interior of this 1981 Toyota Pickup ½ Ton accommodates two occupants on a bench seat and appears in fantastic condition. The original steering wheel has been replaced by a sportier four-spoke Grant G/T unit. Gaze at the meter cluster, and you'll find a central tachometer, which wasn't expected on pickup trucks at the time. Looking further, you can also find the ventilation system controls in the center console, but the radio appears to have been removed, judging by the photos.
Engine
Toyota engines have a reputation for being able to take an astonishing amount of abuse. That said, it doesn't mean you should just forget about the powerplant under the hood of this 1981 Toyota Pickup ½ Ton. The current owner reports that the 2.4L in-line four-cylinder gasoline motor has been rebuilt and is fed via a Weber carburetor. Power outputs are steady rather than stellar, at 98hp and 129lb-ft from factory. Drive goes rearwards through a five-speed manual transmission.
