Hi from Australia.

Hey,

I'm building a 1uz powered hotrod with a Morris LC3 cab.

Chassis is from a hilux with MA70 front+rear brakes swapped in.
It just didn't feel right going american v8 so here I am.

Still pondering FI and aftermarket ECU.

Hi, close to Traralgon, eh.
I like to see Toyota with Toyota etc...

at least fit the MA70 IRS to it, cart springs are evil!

It will be a toyota chassis and engine with Morris body..

I just picked up and M90 and have a 2.5" pulley coming... and I conveniently had a set of green tops waiting for me.

I did consider the MA70 IRS... would save me tracking down another LSD. In the end I decided it wouldn't look as clean and it's supposed to be a truck.

I think in the end the Morris cab and the M90 will nearly be the only non Toyota parts.

Early days.



UZ mounted


A341 with A340 output shaft swap



The other truck, all original. 1949 Morris commercial LC3.

Oh what I would do if I had a shed like that !!!
Nice conversion and different ...
Shouldn't lose money on it either...

I got very lucky with that shed. Trying to make room for a lift at the moment

I think I'm still under 5k... if I finish for under 10 I'll be laughing.
