1997 TOYOTA HiAce Super Custom 4wd Van
Toyota’s Super Custom Hiace is the go-to van for the adventurer looking to make deeper treks into the wilderness, whilst retaining the comfort and on-road performance of a modern vehicle. This van features seating for 8, with middle row seats that swivel to face the rearmost bench seat. This van has dual front airbags.
This HiAce clocks 90,000 original miles, which is really only getting started for Toyota’s 1KZ model 3.0 liter turbo diesel engine, renown for its power, reliability, and long-life. It has the automatic transmission, full-time 4wd, and the triple skylight roof.
As you can see in the pictures, the condition of the van is excellent, and looks to have been stored indoors for the duration of its life in Japan.
