    Brand new on the site, been following this build thread for some time now though, been considering building up my own hilux for a bit. Quick question to anyone who might know, do any of you guys know who's selling HOSH's hilux now? Been scouring CL and the internets and I can't find it. Please PM me, thanks in advance!

    Hey man. Welcome to the site!

    The truck is not for sale anymore and the new owner is working on it load, so I am sure he is planning on keeping it for some time. cheers!

    Just build one! Its rewarding

    Aaah alright, well thanks anyways! Yea I'm going to head that route, there's a '79 longbed up here in NorCal for 5k with only 48k miles that I'm really tempted to snatch up. May copy your suspension setup haha.
