I’m auto junk yarding this weekend for my 75. I was wondering what years and makes are going to get me closest to my 75? I will mostly be going after odds and ends for both under the hood and interior, thanks.

75-80 augtta do. 81 they switched to the PUP style.

Really depends on what odds and ends your looking for. If you find any Luv's take a look at all of them. Gettin to be a rare breed, so look at them all. Take what you like, leave what you don't. I find if I don't make a list of things I want, I get too excited when I see they actually have a Luv or two, I end up forgetting half of what I am there for...

For motor and mechanical parts, go for 72-75. The motor and drivetrain changed quite a lot in 76. 72-77 will have pretty much all the same inside and outside trim except the front bumper and valance are different. (77 and newer tailights have amber turn signals if you'd like a change...) 78-80 inside parts will fit, but the gauges, dash vents, and glove box door are a little different looking style-wise.

If you look on the main http://www.luvtruck.com site under info there is a nice how to on converting your front brakes to discs if you can find the parts. You'd be looking for a 76-80 donor truck, non-4WD.

Isuzu made trucks during the LUV years, but you don't seem them in the USA, so you're just looking pretty much for LUVs. A lot of the parts from 81 LUVs and later year Isuzu PUPs (which were sold in the states) are not a very good fit to 75 and older LUVs, so they would not be much help to ya.
