That is cool!

Looks like the Florian gave birth to the LUV. Here's some more pics, note the date of the red one, 1970. Guessing those would be a good parts interchange too. If anyone can find one :)

Those twin cam engines look awesome! Now that would look nice under the hood of a Luv.

That stepside is cool, iv'e seen the sedan version in Australia they run the noncrossflow engine same as early LUV's. They're called Isuzu Bellets over ere.

Its looks as if a lot of Luv parts would interchange, even front torsion bar setup looks same.

thats more like the meeting with isuzu and GM. lol

if one were to make a 4 door luv, the second doors on the florian would be the perfect one to do it with.

so, did those ever get sold in the states? i would like to get my hands on one. but im guessin they are near impossible to get in nice condition. i also seen an ext cab luv on the net. it was an 80's tho and a bunch of columbians were wheeling it tryin to get it to a field work site or somthin... i believe it was on you tube or streetfire.net both sites have some cool luv vids...
