Built since 1954, these lightweight pick-ups from Toyota were originally called Toyopet as they were sold through a chain of Toyopet Stores.
This second-generation vehicle was redesigned and in March 1959 was given a new product name Toyoace SK20. For the chassis, Toyota reduced the number of front leaf springs and incorporated a simple shock absorber that improved riding comfort.
Unlike her predecessor, this new model’s engine was moved to a position that was underneath and behind the cabin seats. This allowed for a larger space inside the cabin that could accommodate three adults. The cabin also could be tilted for better engine accessibility for repairs.
