The Toyota Hilux, also known as the Pickup, has earned a legendary status and is still being produced today. However, sales in North America ended in 1995 when the Tacoma took its place. The Hilux/Pickup is renowned for its durability, which was famously demonstrated by Jeremy Clarkson's failed attempts to destroy one on his TV show. If you're in the market for a truck that is likely to outlast you, the 1983 Toyota Pickup SR5 is an excellent choice. The SR5 trim, short for Sport Runabout 5-Speed, was highly sought after, and this particular truck not only features that trim but also comes with a few enhancements and a new engine with just 3,000 miles on it. Purchasing this truck is a decision you can make with confidence, and it even includes the owner's manual and repair manuals for added reassurance. Don't hesitate to act quickly if you're interested in this exceptional vehicle.
This 1983 Toyota Pickup SR5 stands out in its clean white attire, complemented by a lifted suspension that gives it a commanding presence. It rides on stylish chrome rims wrapped in BFGoodrich All-Terrain T/A tires, offering both aesthetics and off-road capability. The truck has been fitted with various LED lights, including K/C lights, fog lights, rear lights, and truck bed lighting, providing enhanced visibility in different conditions. Additionally, aftermarket side mirrors have been installed to improve visibility. The truck features period-correct blue detailing, with SR5 and Four Wheel Drive stickers adorning the tailgate, adding to its vintage charm. The undercarriage is reported to be in excellent condition, matching the well-maintained body and fittings. Inside the cabin, you'll find blue fabric seats for two occupants in the single cab configuration. The original dash and Toyota AM/FM push-button radio have been preserved, maintaining the truck's original character. The gauge cluster is clean and fresh, and a tachometer, which was a rarity in trucks of that era, is present. The current owner has added switches and a USB port console on the floor between the seats for convenience, along with external speakers installed behind the seats. They have also converted the air conditioning system from its original R22 refrigerant to the more modern and environmentally friendly R134A refrigerant.
The highlight of this 1983 Toyota Pickup SR5 is its newly installed 2.4-liter 22R single overhead cam four-cylinder gasoline engine. The current owner reports that the engine has only covered 3,000 miles, indicating that it has recently passed its break-in period. While the power figures may not be impressive by modern standards, with 105 horsepower and 136 lb-ft of torque, it is worth noting that the truck's lightweight construction allows for nimble performance. Power is transmitted to the wheels through a five-speed manual transmission and a transfer case, enabling you to select the appropriate power distribution depending on your driving needs. This setup provides the truck with off-road capabilities and the versatility to tackle various terrains. While the power output may not be extravagant, the 1983 Toyota Pickup SR5 is known for its durability and reliability, making it a popular choice among truck enthusiasts. With the newly installed engine and low mileage, this particular model offers a fresh powertrain that is ready to serve for many more miles to come.

Success in the automotive world depends on being consistent, the consistency that's present over decades. The Toyota Land Cruiser is one of those machines that has been consistent throughout the decades, built to conquer anything in its path; being behind the wheel of a Land Cruiser, regardless of its generation, is a driving experience that can never be replicated. Present today is this 1982 Toyota Land Cruiser FJ60; this Japanese legend has a reported 202,269 miles on the clock. That's not all; it's lovingly been taken care of and is an original Land Cruiser in every aspect.
Nothing compares to the feeling of being able to ride higher than the majority of vehicles on the road. A Land Cruiser, with its tall platform and go-anywhere attitude, suits this role unlike any other. What we are offering you here is a beautiful ‘80s icon code-named the FJ60, also known as the Toyota Samurai. Regardless of having 180,000 miles on its odometer, this brute is in immaculate condition, with the current owner reporting it as mostly being in stock. The 1982 Toyota Land Cruiser FJ60 had to fit into a market where the SUV type was booming, and as a result, it was built bigger with ample cabin space. This makes an excellent recipe for a 4-wheel drive or an overlanding vehicle.
Venturing off the beaten path requires a motor that is fit to brave the odds and power through anything in its path. For years, Toyota and its range of Land cruisers have been at the forefront of dominating the great outdoors. Looking back at the success of the legendary Land Cruiser marque, one can draw its roots back to the iconic Toyota BJT20. Built to compete with the famous Willy's Jeep for military use in the Korean War, the Toyota BJT20 is a big part of Toyota's history and a rare bird within the collector car market. Present today is a unicorn of the off-road world that takes shape with this lovely 1953 Toyota BJT20. With just a reported 5,000 miles since its restoration, this is the genesis of Toyota's off-roading history and is also reliable classic car ownership neatly packaged as one.
An icon of the American Military, it’s really no surprise that the original HMMWV spawned civilian models. While the Hummer H1 was more of a direct reincarnation, the Hummer H2 offered consumers a more stylish and practical entry point into General Motors’ Hummer lineup, available in both SUV and SUT body styles. Design-wise, the Hummer H2 retained its forebear's boxy and aggressive styling. Although smaller than the H1, the H2 retained some impressive dimensions and, with it, all the road presence that it was due. Today, the Hummer name is attached to an EV that takes inspiration from the original, but if you want the original American icon, then look no further than our featured 2008 Hummer H2 SUT. It’s a truck that features some tasteful upgrades, with the current owner reporting that they bought the truck stock and built it themselves.
The Land Rover Defender is a British icon that has been offered since 1983. This 1998 model has undergone a full frame-off restoration which was completed in 2024, as reported by the current owner. Retaining its original engine with less than 56,000 miles, this Land Rover Defender 90 has been upgraded with air conditioning and an array of new mechanical parts, ready to take off on its new adventures.
The Land Rover Defender has always been a bit of a forbidden fruit kind of car for U.S. consumers. Despite a handful of North American-spec Defenders being offered, by and large, the classic Defender was unobtanium in the States. But that doesn’t mean you can’t sample this classic off-roading icon today. Thanks to imports opening up, you can now get your hands on European-sourced examples of the classic Defender in various flavors. Take our featured car, for example, which was imported from the Netherlands. It features a classic 3.5-liter Rover V8, an automatic transmission, and a few modern features to improve driveability.
