Hi everything, my name is Alistair, I'm 26 and from Victoria, Australia. I have a few cars that will be of no interest to most people here but more importantly I own a 1982 Toyota Hilux 4WD. I decided to sign up to this forum as a lot of questions I have I can find answers to here and the only Australian forums I can find are full of Patrol-owning keyboard warriors.

I'll most likely use this forum more for looking for technical information rather than posting but I plan to start a build thread at some point. There's not too many of my shape Hilux left out here (I rarely see them) so it'll be good seeing what other people do them  :)

Thanks for the warm welcome guys. I had a feeling that the dual cabs never made it over there, which is a shame as the extra space is good and you can actually recline your seat. There isn't a lot of room for passengers in the back but it can legally carry five people which is helpful and even out here is a reasonably unique.

I will start a build thread very soon but for now here is a picture of the rear seat area so you can sort of see what it is like:
