    thanks for the welcome everyone, it sure isnt the prettiest one around but i love it anyway so heres some pics! and seeing as i bought it in pennsylvania it definitely has major rust issues, so far i rebuilt the inner rockers, all the cab mounts (the cab wasnt even attached to the frame it was so bad) and rebuilt almost the entire floor

    Hi everyone new here. Just got this 74 hilux out of a pasture where it set for over 5 years. Wanted something I could fix up and be proud of how much it came along. I have it running now but runs really rough. I am having trouble finding parts. Need a breather and a vacuum diagram. I've been on just about every web site there is and was told this was the best one for getting info and ideas. Hope someone can help.
