1993 Toyota Hiace campervan for sale! 5-speed manual transmission 4x4 with locking hubs and hi/low range. Toyota's famous 3L diesel engine with just 41,000 original miles (seriously).

Here's a video of the van as of June 2018; we've made some upgrades to tires, wheels, and seating since then (and the awning is not set up right in the video):
Yes, it's a right-hand drive. This was the first RHD I've ever driven, and it took about 10 minutes to get used to it. The shift pattern and pedal configuration are the same as normal LHD autos. It's been up and down Highway 17 a few times with no issues at all. Cruises on the highway at 70 mph. It does slow down more on steep grades. Got 22 mpg on a recent trip to Tucson. We are selling only because my wife cannot drive a stick and we would like to get a van we can both drive.
Seat/bed: The van originally came with a rock'n'roll seat/bed that could face forward, backward, or lay flat. It had lap belts for passengers. To make it safer for our child to ride in the van, I installed different rear passenger seats with built-in shoulder belts. Those seats fold flat, are easily removable, and can be used to support cushions for a lower bed. There is an upper bunk bed that is made by resting slats across the countertops. The van sleeps two adults and two children comfortably. I still have the original rock'n'roll bed and it will be included with the sale.
$23,000 obo. Will consider trades for a Bostig-powered Vanagon pop-top with auto trans or a high-roof Sprinter or Transit with low miles.
Terms: Cash only, exchanged at a mutually convenient bank. The van is being sold AS IS, with no warranties express or implied.
