RPP Hobby...is a vendor on this forum...and they stock the Hilux bodies....you have to order quite a few items to build a COMPLETE body. Cab Bed Windows Light lenses tree Headlight bucket ....bumpers...mirrors...etc Park light buckets Grill tree rear bed pieces tree Most all of those pieces are on separate parts tree's..... and that's when most guys find out that it's not so cheap to build a COMPLETE Hillux body! You can get just the cab and bed for around $40 + shipping....but the other parts can easily add up to another $100+ (depending on how u build it) Here's another one that I'm building right now....it's getting painted tonight:    ArOn | |

oh definatly i completely agree with you Aron. My total came out to 110 and i was missing the windows. Anyways, once your cab or bed crack or break during crawling. They are easly replacable. I payed 60 bucks almost for a brand new cab, bed and grill

Not sure if this is old news, but it has colors and sales brochures from various Toyota truck model years, including the '79-'83 model. Figured some may find it helpful...  http://www.toyotareference.com/truck#TR |
