70rs/ss 01-14-2008, 07:42 PM I plan to do this with a newer S10, maybe a BBC.
special-K 01-15-2008, 01:52 AM COOL!!!Looks like a sleeper with the stock paint and toned-down rallyes.I like those LUVs.I always wanted to build a badass 4wd one with Chevy fullsize parts to stuff it to all the Toyota boys.
Mickey_D 01-15-2008, 05:27 AM Ah, reminiscing about my old '79 4X4.....
I'll see if I can find any of the old pics and scan them in (yes I owned it long before the days of digital cameras).
I wondered how long it would take to get a Luv in here & a NICE one too! Thanks for posting it...
70rs/ss 01-16-2008, 09:51 AM I have my eye on one down the road from me, nice and original just sitting. I keep fantasizing about a nasty 383 in it!
hotrod 80 01-20-2008, 02:31 PM Thanks guys , i bought this truck off ebay with 4x,xxx miles . Motor and trans where gone . Oklahoma truck , almost rust free . i got the Vega he had problems . I also got scolded pretty bad . That was the third pass in the rollbar zone . They told me " you will slow down until you have the proper safty equipment or you will spectate " . Anyway thanks for the kind words .

Trey` 01-22-2008, 11:19 AM Awesome little truck, wish I still had my '79 sometimes especially with gas going up.
hotrod 80 01-22-2008, 11:42 AM Thanks Dano .

CAL 58 GMC 01-22-2008, 03:11 PM When I was 18, I had a 1975 Luv I put a 327 in. man that was one fast truck.
Bishops Trucks 01-22-2008, 03:29 PM That's a nice sleeper you have. I've been around a few Luvs when I was younger. They are cool little trucks.

special-K 01-22-2008, 08:31 PM I think 1/2 the LUVs were that color.I love how that makes it more non-descript other than a nicer LUV than you`re used to seeing(if you see one).
Trey` 01-23-2008, 11:55 AM That is a nice little truck good rim choice too, still 6 lug?
hotrod 80 01-23-2008, 11:59 AM It's 5 x 4.5 5 lug . I did the toyota rotor conversion .
