My Grandfather bought the 68 new in 1969. I remember the day he brought it home.
He put an older camper on it and it was his his hunting/camping rig. Mostly it sat on the street in front of their house.
It was given to me in 1986, so I'm the second owner. It had 68,000 miles on it. It's been my daily driver since then, I've added 200,000 miles to it. I rebuilt the 240 straight six 2 years ago.
Mostly still all original. Only things I've changed are:
-Wheels (saved the original hubcaps)
-Bigger radiator
-Electric fan
-Aluminum grill (someone backed into the original white one).
-Added a grill guard (didn't help, see above lol).
-Air bags supplement on rear suspension
-Camper finally dry rotted so it is gone, replaced with a period correct (old) aluminum shell.
Until the 4runner, all my vehicles are old. 68 pickup, 78 & 80 motorcycles, 88 quad. Now a 17 T4R.
Getting soft in my old age.
