1980 Daihatsu Taft F 50 RV

 

1980 Daihatsu Taft F 50 RV

4WD,engine: 2530 cc 4 cylinder naturally aspirated diesel engine, max power 66 bhp/4000 rpm, max torque 162 Nm/2200rpm, tyre: Bridgestone Jeep Service 7.00-15.

My car is standard, no major modification on it. I have attached WARN M-6000 winch and snorkel. But all differentials, engine are original. The torque of diesel engine which can be reached max torque in low rpm, enough power to weight ratio, combining with low gear and overall gear ratios are enough to do offroads, even in tough terrain. I have a plan to make restoration due many rust on the body.

I like to go offroad around my house. The terrain is mud in the Palm Plantation. My home is in Medan, North Sumatra, Indonesia.

 

Have A Nice Days!.

 

I would like to send you the attachment photos of my truck while doing offroads.

My house in Medan, North Sumatra, Indonesia. I'm 34 years old, have 1 son.

The attachment photos are offroads activity near my house, inside the Palm Plantation.

Its been rainy days change the field into exciting mud terrain. I like to take my little son while going offroads, and he is really happy during the adventure. The photos attached show him behind the wheel.

Actually I have ever lived in Bandung, West Java. I have Jeep Club in Bandung. Its name is Paguyuban Jeep Bandung (Bandung Jeep Community). My friends have many types of trucks, mostly old jeep but in good conditions. They are Willis Jeep, Land Rover Defender or 110, Suzuki Jimny, Jeep CJ-7, and LandCruiser FJ 40. Many types of trucks make us share information about all type, capability etc of every jeep.  I love doing offroads with my friends in the club around West Java. They are nice and have much fun, and jokes. They said this offroads activities is nice, exciting, make refreshment during daily routine works, and also make a long life. They are also come from many backgrounds which can make many experiences to share with them. During 2001-2003 We have many offroads around West Java, working with The Tourist Department, and make offroads to be a part of Tourist Destination, to see many beautiful places in Indonesia. We also have Indonesian Offroad Federation here, have to do offroads with obey the regulation, not to break the environment/nature.

My truck is also help me while doing my works in the fields. It needs 4WD to deal with the terrain. On 1997, I have works in 16 Inch Gas Piping Installation. Its really exciting while combining between offroads and working.

 

Since 2001, I work in Ericsson Indonesia and I have moved to Medan. Its almost 2000 kms from Bandung. But my truck is still with me, its only him can help me to build towers in rough terrains.

 

My next plan in this truck is to make major modifications on its body. It gets rust on body during hardworking.

That is the experiences of me and my truck. Wish you and all 4WDs Enthusiasts are always have the best in their life.

 

Thank you,
