Old Toyota Hilux - worth buying?

Hello my Readers! I was recently thinking about buying older Toyota Hilux, let's say from about 1982 to 1989. They are fourth and fifth generation.





Equipped  with engines from 1.6 to 3.0 V6 diesel and petrol engines with turbos. So many options were available.

But right now not many people have to sell car like this.
Cool thing about those cars, they are pretty simple, you can tune it very nice. From custom shocks to bi turbo engines. But keep life of car in mind.
Spare parts depends on country where you live. Also in many countries you can have big discount on taxes if car is old and its called veteran car or similar to this.

Rust shouldn't be a problem. In those old cars you can just cut out rust pieces and weld new ones, spare parts or from another car that can suit. My friend do it all the time in chevys.

If you are looking for some hobby car that you can drive it for fun I think its a good choice!
