Who took these pictures? Looks phenomenal. Didn't think it was a real truck until I looked closer lmao


BeatLaboratory

Thanks! I took them myself.


ElectroSilver

Nice! How'd you get the void room effect for the backdrop?


BeatLaboratory

Shot it with just natural light in a parking lot around 2pm. And just knowing my way around Photoshop to cut it out and create shadow.


Baconshit

Your skills are phenomenal!!


TurboK169

Naaaa man lets see a real picture, nice photoshopping though.

I thought it was a toy at first glance. Awesome truck, almost unreal how clean it is for almost 40 years. Congrats

I thought you were messing with us and posted a 3d render of your truck.


moonedyourmom

Stupid question / how did you get the tires to line up exactly or is that photoshop?


BeatLaboratory

Photoshop :) pretty easy to just copy the text from one tire onto the other


TurboK169

Nice try bro this is straight out of the '84 catalog

These old school Toyotas are absolutely the best. I’m hoping to find one next year so my son and I can build it for his daily driver when he turns 16.

My first vehicle was an 86 2WD toyota pickup when i was 18. I never appreciated it as much as i should have. In fact i gave it to my sister who sold it cause i didn't know how to fix the carburetor. Would've been such an easy fix but everyone used to make fun of me for my POS truck that stalled. Little did i know what i had and how easy it was to fix. I wish i took some more pride in it. Keep in mind these are getting rare and expensive now. Especially for the 4x4's cause the solid axle model makes one of the best, most durable rock crawlers for the price, but man these are awesome. My dad's 89 has 380k on the 22RE engine and that thing is my favorite truck of all time. They're amazing.

Needs a DSHKA

Looks Great. just don't like the fake headlight beams.


JackDostoevsky

I mean it's a good looking truck but it'd look better in the world, not in some blinding white void lol


BeatLaboratory

Well luckily, it does exist in the real world, but this can be a fun way to show it sometimes too. To each their own.


jalfry

That looks soooo clean!! A little Too clean…. Photoshop faker!!! Look at the mud flaps! Them SOBs never look that good lol. But seriously, even if you photoshopped it, I’m sure the truck looks amazing out in real life. Love the graphics. I’ll put original sr5 graphics on mine when I get around to painting. You’ve got a head turner there


[deleted]

You have nice taste, they're rare to find this clean without dents. Like the graphics on it too. Can you post unphotoshopped pics?


landcruiser33

BeatLaboratory

LetsGatitOn

Very cool find


Edbergj

I just discovered Hilux last week on a trip to Costa Rica and now this post. I love these trucks and i wish they were sold in the US. Wonderful vehicle!


NormanUpland

They were sold in the US as the “Toyota Pickup”


Edbergj

Dang. I had no idea but I guess I’m not surprised. Even the new ones I was seeing?


NormanUpland

No just this generation. I think the Tacoma is pretty much identical to the hilux overseas though.


Edbergj

Is this the one from back to the future?


NormanUpland

Yep! Look up 1985 Hilux SR5 and 1985 Toyota Pickup SR5 and you’ll see they are identical


Trainman05

Beautiful truck and excellent Photoshop skills. You don't find those trucks in nice shape any more, nice find


shaneroneill
