I was watching a show on the public broadcasting network a month or so back and they had a very interesting show about some desert lions.
As interesting as the lions were, I was super interested in the old Hilux the fella was driving around. It was an absolutely beat early 80's long bed, with a modified cab and a bed rack. I did some fishing around on the web and found the guys site.
Though it would be appreciated and in good company here (hopefully these pics turn out):

And the new ride after 500,000k on the old one:
