This is my 1991 Hilux Surf. It's lean. it's green...it's a camerons valiant killing MACHINE :D

It's a work in progress, bit strapped for cash to put into the 'lux since i'm only 15. But it's getting there. The head cracked a few years back and since then we've completely replaced the engine, every little thing down to the wiring. Unfortunately one of the flood lights isn't working, and I only found out why the other day, it appears as though the right flood light has had the wiring completely snapped off. dammit!!

Eventually I'll get around to sound, but for now I'm not really that concerned about it. More concerned about a new head unit as the one in there cant even play cds XD (did i mention it's a cd player? :\)

Now to the engine... My friend and I look forward to the engine project. We're planning to either get a small block chevy v8 and fit it in (tight fit) or a lexus v8 (even tighter) and further more adding a parrallel turbo system. It's a bit sluggish, always has been so that's a bit of a bitch. I just recently found an EPI switch which changes the turbo output, now I'm slightly happier *evil grin*

 

The interior's looking pretty damn stock as far as I'm concerned. A few thing have come loose in the dash area and needed some DIY. Got around to smackin' them in and it's looking mighty fine :P Fair bit of dirt in almost every inch of the whole car, the steering wheel will probably be the first thing I replace in the interior.

Every piece of glass behind the steering wheel is tinted at 100% with gold tint. I have no idea if this is stock because the car is an import. The back wheel bar is fairly rusted at the joints and until i got hold of the car itself the whole mechanism wouldn't work, we had to tie rope around the back to keep the wheel from swinging open while driving :\

But overall I can't really complain, this car is MY beast. It'll crush you XD. Hope you enjoy :)
