1970 Toyota Hilux Pickup for sale

1970 Toyota Hilux Pickup One Owner on Ebay!

1970 Toyota Hilux PickupHere is a rare 1970 Hilux for sale on Ebay. I doubt you could find a nicer example for the money. The center picture below is a similar truck that was restored- just for comparison. Click the link above for more info or to bid on this truck before it goes to someone else! From the auction listing:

INTERIOR: Original seat cover and dash pad need replacing. It has the original floor mat that is in pretty good shape. It has an aftermarket stereo in the stock location since the early 70’s. It is an AM radio and it still works. Door panels are in good shape. Windows roll up and down and doors lock with the original key from when the truck was new. It is missing the rear view mirror as the owner took it off since he had a shell on the back and lost it. Heater and fan work fine.

EXTERIOR: The owner who is now 80 years old saw that his paint was getting thin in places and so he brushed on white house paint over many areas of the truck (that is the white you see in the pics) to protect the metal. While it did protect the metal, it looked awful. I wet sanded most of it off, but I figure whoever buys this is most likely going to restore it so I didn’t get it all off. If I was selling the truck for $10K I would have had it all off, but for $500….Anyway all the panels are straight with one dent on the top of the right front fender which is easily fixable. For the most part, everything on this truck is usable for restoration. Any rust you see on the truck is surface rust only except the lower rear of the front fenders. You will need small patch panels for the lower front fenders, but other that that the body is extremely straight and would be an easy job to prep for paint. The front windshield has a chip in it but could still be used, but needs new weatherstripping around it. The door weatherstripping has pretty much deteriorated as well and needs to be replaced. The wheels and hubcaps are original. As mentioned earlier, the bed is probably the closest to mint that you will ever find in this vintage.

MECHANICAL: The engine starts right up and drives and shifts fine. The brakes need adjusting and may just need to be bled as the pedal is very soft. Tires are in great shape and nearly new. The original owner told me that the engine was rebuilt in 2003 and hardly has any miles on it as the truck mainly set for the last five years. I wouldn’t recommend driving this truck any great distance due to the brakes. Mechanically the truck seems very sound.
