Hi, my name is Andy from Indonesia. I just bought a 1983 4WD Chevrolet LUV that came with C190 diesel.
In Indonesia, Chevy LUV sold from '75-'94. '75-'81 for 1st gen and '82-'94 for the 2nd gen. Most of them are 2WD diesel C190.

I ever own three 1st gen Trooper, not in the same time, and familiar with them. I've heard that 2nd gen LUV share some parts with 1st gen Trooper, specially '81-'83. But since this is my first LUV, and I want to restore it with 1981 US version LUV, I will need a lot help from people in here.

That's all for the introduction. I'll share the modification process in "Projects/Builds" soon.

Andy

It does have a license plate so technically it is a street truck, that sets off car alarms and makes kids cry. lol

Welcome to the site! Are Isuzu KB20 parts still available in your area? They seem to be more available in your area of the world.

Hi OzLuvTrucker, I've sold that Trooper. I'm heading for a new one, but this LUV is something that I couldn't reject.

Yes, this KBD41 use C190, and I will definitely need your advisory help. It's use different fuel system than Trooper C223.

Sorry jeffklam, if KB20 means '72-'73 LUV, that's something that I never seen in here. I've seen many 1st gen LUV, but that's the same truck with '74-'79 US spec.
