Hello, I have been looking at this site and it is great. here are pics of my 77 luv. I bought it from a guy down the street form me for 195.00. I found the fuel line from the fuel pump to tank kinked. shortened the hose and it started right up. However, I know better than this. I drove it around the block then parked it for a couple of days and now the carb won't let the gas into the float bowel. Should have removed the old gas out of the tank first. now I have to rebuild the carb I think. Well here it is.

Good lookin truck!

Those hitachi carbs are a nightmare to rebuild. Get a weber if you can.
