1986'ish Hilux restore questions

Post by heafield »

Hi all.

I am looking to restore my 1986'ish single cab 4x4 Hilux to its original glory. I have been all over the net but have some questions for those in the know and would appreciate your assistance.

Here goes:

1) How do I tell the year from the yn67r-mdn model number? Is this the only number I need to quote when ordering parts?

2) I'm looking for a great spare part supplier in South Africa. A lot of ( but not all ) of this restore are things like interior, mirrors, visors, vinyl, door kick strips, rear slide window etc etc.

3) I am also looking for a load bin. Any suggestions?

4) Does anyone know of a good panel beater on the KZN north coast?

Thanks very much for your assistance.

Cheers

Craig

Craig not sure what mirrors you are looking for but if interested I have the brown mirror inside the cabin for you.
