1978 Toyota Long bed pick-up SR5 review from North America

Replace the clutch at 120,000 miles.

Replaced 2 sets of brake shoes.

Air-conditioner didn't work. Part to fix cost more that the A/C unit originally cost.

Replaced radiator.

Bed rusted badly. Toyota used dissimilar metal in joining the bed and frame so the least little salt and water and maximum rust.

Great little pickup truck.

I bought it 10 years old and sold it 13 years later for near what I paid for it.

Good all around local transportation, nothing fancy just reliable.

Started every time I hit the key, the first time.

Was keeping it out of curiosity to see how many miles I could put on it. Had to sell due to move. It is still running.

Very important to change oil and filter at 3000 miles. Piston blow by will ruin the oil and motor where nothing else will.
