1979 Chevrolet LUV Mikado review from North America
"Truck of the year (back in the day)"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
My transmission is slipping and the exhaust manifold gets real hot. The carburetor isn't the greatest of them all.
General comments?
It's really comfortable, and the four wheel drive works like a dream. You can put it anywhere and get back out.
