This 1985 Toyota Xtracab SR5 4x4 pickup is our BringATrailer auction pick of the day:
Known as the Hilux in overseas markets, the simple Toyota pickup of the 1980s became an icon of unkillability. They rusted, sure, but the rugged four-cylinder powertrain kept humming along as the miles crept upward. Rather famously, the show, up to and including putting it on the roof of a building that was then leveled with a controlled demolition. Didn't matter; the truck still ran.
Fitted out with Smittylite bumpers and roll bar and a total of six KC HiLites auxiliary lights, this truck is all dressed up like the movies. But underneath, it's running a 2.4-liter 22RE four-cylinder engine, with a five-speed manual gearbox and a two-speed transfer case. A set of 31-inch Goodyear tires on 15-inch wheels provide grip, with the suspension getting a mild lift for off-road duties.The odometer shows 127,000 miles, but actual mileage is stated as unknown.
