A little japanese nostalgia....
« on: Oct 03, 2007, 11:56:41 AM »
I forget how i came across this website but i thought it was kinda cool.  I'm a big fan of the old school Japanese cars like the old school skylines and what not and saw that they had some 4wd love on there to.

I guess this was a factory brochure for the 79 Toyota 4wd. http://japanesenostalgiccar.com/article.cgi?section=nostalgia&article=toyotaPickup4WD1979

Also if you just wanna look around the site at some of the cars on it just go to http://japanesenostalgiccar.com/

Hope this isn't a repost. Enjoi.  :biggthumpup:

Neat! I'd like to print and frame them, and hang them in the garage.

Nice little time capsule  :biggthumpup:

The brochure pic, pic 16.  I have one of those spare tires with titties still and I'd run a full set if I could get all 4 in similar shape!

You can go through life being scared of the possible, or you can have a little fun and tease the inevitable.

Give a man venison, he'll eat for a day. Teach a man to hunt Blacktail, he'll be frustrated for life!

It would be real cool to find a good bodied 1st gen and restore it. I love those rims that are on it.
