    Just to say that this truck has been collected and is back on the road !!! :clapping:

    However someone did an engine swap in the past and it now runs a Nissan SD22 instead of the original 5R ... does anyone perhaps have one lying around? :shrug:

    I don't have any more pics yet since the truck is 200 km away from me ... keep you posted :cool:


    Sorry to disappoint all you lowriders etc. but the the European laws are becoming very strict as to modding ... so this truck will be restored back to original specs. :shrug:

    This truck was imported from Angola back in the 70's and at that time someone did an engine swap to a Nissan Diesel SD22 (those were the days !!!) so at the moment my mate is looking for an original Toyota 5R to fit back ... anyone ?? :meemee:
