My 2020/2021 Covid Project Hilux Surf
Hello All
As 2020/2021 have been a bust for travel, during the winter of 2020 I started the recommissioning of a Hilux that I have owned for almost 10 years, that has sat waiting for time and purpose.
With time to daydream and plan, I had decided that I wanted to visit and see North Africa, it was sufficiently exotic and slightly unattainable so that it gave me purpose to work on a plan to Visit Morocco with my own vehicle one day.
I installed the motor gearbox from a wrecked hilux I had,overhauled all the brakes and suspension systems and had the vehicle inspected (MOT'd?)and legalized to return to the road.
Since it was completed this early summer, the vehicle has been in daily use and has travelled 14,000 Kms and should be fit for purposed to send over for use on the African continent when we can do so safely.
I am now looking towards the day I can get to Morocco and RIM for a proper long term explore of this area of the world I knew very little about prior to covid
