I just picked up my first Luv. A 1980 4x4. It's nothing much to look at, but the price was right. I wasn't really looking for another pickup, but you can't pass up a working 4x4 for $400
My neighbor was having a garage sale, and we went to go look. She was moving out of state the next morning. It was originally priced at $1200 (way to high IMO) but she was willing to go $500 to move it, I only had $400, so we settled on that. She had just put in new front wheel bearings, and put one of the hubs back together wrong. It wouldn't turn. It took me a couple hours, but it works just fine now. It has a 2" body lift and 15" tires, but I'll need to add better tires to do any real off-roading.
I don't care much about the sheet metal, I just like to go up in to the hills and tend to bump in to stuff out there, so it was a good deal for me. My Jeep Cherokee uses to much gas for me to go as often as I like, so I think this will be perfect.
I was surprised at how much you guys are doing with these, I hope I don't get hooked and turn a $400 pickup truck in to a $2000 pickup truck
I can see it happening.
Here's a pic, like I said it's not much to look at, but it runs strong, and I can't wait until this weekend to go test it out in the woods.
