Something a bit different to what's normally on here.

It's been a tipper most of it's life as far as i know.
It's had the bottom end rebuilt as one of the previous drivers over revved it and blew it up.

as you can see it needs a new drivers door, but it's very hard to find panels for it over here, i have a pair of front wings to go that have no dents and a minor bit of surface rust. also needs a front bumper but i might see if a can get a cheap hilux surf one (same as a 4runner). needs a few bits doing to it. i have another set of steels to go after i have painted them and got some new tyres, as i don't like the wheel trims.


this is a working truck so i can't do much to it as it's used 5/6 days a week.

Interesting, is it common to see a marker light below the fender badge on these trucks in the UK?

every vehicle after 1985 in the uk needs a wing repeater, thats why a lot of new cars have them in the mirrors now.

Forgive me as I'm not familiar with UK terminology... Are wings the same as side mirrors?

wings are fenders
