I just bought a subaru brat which APPEARS to have been set on an isuzu frame. The engine, frame, axle looks just like yours. But according to RockAuto it should have 6 lug wheels but it has 5 lugs. Do you remember if yours had 5 or 6 lug wheels?
@graydonblair thanks. I eventually figured out someone had mounted this thing on a '87 chevy frame! So there's nothing isuzu on the truck except the engine and transmission
Thanks....yep. It was a great ride. I miss it. But, it was rusting out and it's days were numbered. Now it spends nice winters in Mississippi at the hand of a loving new owner.
Nice truck. My first vehicle was a 1978 Toyota pickup, similar in size to this. It belonged to my stepdad and was also a rustbucket. It's incredible that it was as solid as it was. Northwest winters are rather tough on vehicles like this.
Because I never drive it anymore (haven't driven it more than 100 miles in the past 6 months) and in Utah they're slowly killing off these old diesels by lowering the emissions on diesels to a rate so low that they can't pass.
mine had a six lug and they only make 65hp lol it was fun

You know, I can't remember for sure, but I THINK it was $1600. Sorry, it was quite a while ago.
I'm pretty sure it was $1600 though.

Horn works great too...

why are you getting rid of it?
monsteric1974 3 years ago
Because I never drive it anymore (haven't driven it more than 100 miles in the past 6 months) and in Utah they're slowly killing off these old diesels by lowering the emissions on diesels to a rate so low that they can't pass.
I figured someone else would enjoy it.

This was the North American successor to the Chevrolet LUV.
Love that sickening seat belt buzzer!
BTW, you forgot to beep the horn!
