Overview of 1983 Toyota Pickup SR5 - Lifted For Sale by Owner

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.

Exterior and Interior

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.

Engine

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.

1953 Ford F-100 Restomod

For Sale
ASK: $81,298
Miles: 2,058
Estimated: $828.15/mo

American pickup trucks of the 1950s have become some of the most celebrated platforms for restomod builds, and the 1953 Ford F-100 stands among the most recognizable thanks to its rounded fenders, distinctive grille, and timeless proportions. Marking the introduction of Ford's second-generation F-Series, the 1953 model offered a fresh design that has continued to inspire custom builders for generations. This 1953 Ford F-100 Restomod Pickup, showing just 2,058 miles, takes that classic foundation and transforms it into a custom street truck finished in Silver over a Black leather interior. Beneath its sculpted hood sits a formidable 460ci (7.5L) big-block V8 paired with an automatic transmission, complemented by aftermarket exhaust headers, an upgraded cooling system, and a custom exhaust setup. The truck's lowered stance, polished five-spoke wheels, custom wood-plank bed, and body-colored exterior details contribute to its refined hot rod appearance. Inside, custom leather seating, modern instrumentation, power windows, air conditioning, and a Pioneer touchscreen system with Apple CarPlay and Android Auto introduce contemporary convenience without sacrificing its vintage character. Combining traditional Ford styling with big-block power and extensive customization, this F-100 offers an engaging interpretation of a classic American pickup built for modern enjoyment.
