    Hi All,

    Nice informative site you guys have here.
    I am from South Africa, Cape Town and the mini truck scene is starting to grow down here. Has always been around but the following is getting stronger.
    I have recently purchased a 1972 Hilux RN13 (12R) from an elderly man who happens to be the 2nd owner.
    Always garaged but barely driven.

    Problems I have noted;
    Steering box is shot
    Head gasket blown
    Clutch fluid leaking into cabin
    Exhaust broken in half

    Intend to repair everything and get it roadworthy and registered before doing any upgrades / modifications.

    I also have a 1984 LHD KP61 that my brother and I are currently building for drags.

    Regards,
    Henoja
