Notes: I am 15 years old and just finished working off the $300 my grandma wnated for her 74 Mikado shoveling her horses crap. Any ways when I say On/Off Road I mean off road as in still sittin in the driveway. Its all stock exept for a Weber carb that some fool put on without tuning it. trying to sort that out now. Severly cracked dash from sittin in the sun for like 5 years. looks like a child put toghether the wiring under the steering wheel. The paint on the hood is almost all gone replaced my rust. All that wrong and still when I look at it I just want so bad to be able to drive it. Well I don't know a lot about the engine on it or any engines really but my dad is gonna help me with that. Anyhow I really think I bought the right truck because hey if all of you guys are happy then the LUV must be in the air.

Notes: Newly acquired 1980 Luv 4x4. A friend of mine recently wrecked my 1978 Toyota 2wd that I have had for 5 years, so I started looking for a replacement. When I was younger, before I could drive, my dad used to own a 76 luv that we called Sanford. He always bragged so much about how much fun it was to drive. He sold it to some kid for 200 bucks and has regretted it ever since. So when I started looking for a replacement for the Toyota, I had my mind set on a luv. Not quite sure what all I am going to do to it, but time will tell.

Notes: I’m 17 years old just like another luv owner that I’ve read about, my old man gave me his truck and I took it, I thought I could fix it and right now I'm having trouble with the fuel systems but I’ll fix it . I fixed my luv in rop and its description is blue, about 5 inches off the ground and it has 2 custom boxes along the side of the bed with 2 10" connected, at school they gave it the nicknames "Blue Demon" and "The Luv Machine" and is on the way to becoming a show truck.
