just purchased this truck on Sunday, soembody did a lot of work on the conversion but never completed the cooling system, fuel management or clutch controls. I've worked at a Hino dealer for many years and alwasy wanted one of the early 4cyl diesels for a pickup because of the timing gears at the front, the newere ones have it all at the rear and an overhead cam. I had the motor turnign over by hand but it felt a little tight in one spot. goign to tinker with it when we are slow at work, I do have soem plans for it. have a 1984 shortbed to match for it in usable condition, shorten the frame and maybe put F150 beams/brakes/rear axle. cab is usable and front clip is all new parts. disgracefull paint adhesion trmeclad doesn't stick to spot putty if you don't prep it. hope to get more pics up in the next few weeks. my daughter took 1 of me dropping it off at work behind the shop.
