I’m located in Elizabeth City NC if anyone one is interested.

My wife is loosing her marbles so I have to get this out of my yard. It has surface rust on the back half but no holes. I’m keeping the rims and front bumper but everything else has to go $1k engine runs, trans works great and the axle is smooth. I also have a good amount of parts from the interior and engine bay.

Please someone come get this lol

Took me around 5 months painting panel by panel during weekends. Previous repaint was already cracking due to being applied too thick. After learning a bit about automotive bodywork and painting, I decided to DIY it to save on labor.

Added a little bonus and wet-sanded and applied 2k clear on the headlights.

Tried electric paint gun on the hood and came out with so much orange peel that I decided to use my old compressor and buy a cheap HVLP and LVLP gun for the rest of the panels. Also bought some stickers that would be a great fit for a white truck.

Only ones remaining are the front and rear bumpers and the side mirror housings to be painted with matte black and clear.

The ninth-generation Toyota Hilux quickly caught the attention of customizers. The Thai company Rung Rueng Service (RRS) transformed the pickup into a full-fledged dump truck.

The single-cab version received a reinforced steel tipper body (or a modified stock one), measuring approximately 2500×1760×600 mm, with the option to increase the height.

Reinforced suspension and a floating rear axle allow it to carry up to 5 tons of cargo.

The lifting mechanism is either electric or powered by a power take-off shaft. Optionally, a crane-manipulator with a lifting capacity of up to 1,000 kg can be installed!

Importantly, the conversion is modular and does not require cutting the frame—all standard systems, including the camera and parking sensors, are retained.

RRS modifies other pickup trucks in a similar manner. They even build dump trailers for them! For example, the one based on the Mitsubishi Triton in the last photo.
