I just want to share some Hilux images. Collected them over the years.
All are running, all are in good shape. Hope to see more images from your side.

 

Hi Forni,

Welcome on TB ! I'm always happy to see 3 speed addicts ! You have a lovely collection of Hi-Lux's there !

Here are a few pictures of mine :

Nice white body AL 

Very nice trucks Forni



I'm getting quite a soft spot for the original Hilux 4x4, and even the Blazer - which I used to think was a bit silly - is really growing on me. 

I think we're well overdue for a re-release of both - Tamiya were most of the way there with the Bruiser re-re, but I suppose less retooling was required for the Mountaineer/Mountain Rider re-re. New body back end & rework the 1.9" Hummer wheels? 

The Blazer, I know Tamiya had some sort of falling out with GMC, but if they can modify the Clod Buster, they could do the same for the Blazer. Probably have to call it something else, like  "Matching Trousers" Tamiya would sell so many sets of the tyres to Wild Willy owners, and take away sales from the repro makers into the bargain.

 

I liked the Blazer but never really warmed to the Hilux, I don't know why.
You have a great collection of them. 

I've always known about these 4WD Tamiya all metal trucks, but never bought one. I did buy the RC4WD Trailfinder2, because it's so 'scale' and realistic looking. I may yet buy a Hilux or the Blazer.

I like all the 3 speed. I'm lucky to have a blazer and a mountaineer. And more modern f350 and trucks.
