WHY DID WE BUY THIS?! MITS Alloy 79 Series Build EP-1

[@anthonywhite1525]

3/4 canopy for sure. Keep the spare wheels where they will still sit on the deck. A metallic blue , but not like the deep blue toyota did. Will stand out from the rest

[@mitsalloy]

Ohhh thats an interesting choice there mate. Very unique

[@anthonywhite1525]

Yea something that ties the whole build back to your company since you have that bit of blue in your logo. Dont want it to blend in. Make it unique, make yours

[@thomashodge4287]

Around 1200-1400mm on the canopy would be an ideal size for a young couple or solo traveler, definitely keeps the weight forward and still allows good deck space for wood and other accessories. You could even canvas enclose the second half of the tray

[@mitsalloy]

Good options there man!

[@jontywardle1535]

Full colour coded graphite, 3/4 canopy with blue and white mits details on the side would look clean!

[@mitsalloy]

Will definitely have signage on it mate!

[@hunt_fish_explore]

Sandy taupe and black with 1600 canopy colour coded to suit 🤙🏼

[@mitsalloy]

Oooft! that is a solid suggestion right here!

[@brodiejulian1952]

I reckon

[@saukeolil]

Silver Gray with transparent black and small red strips❤

[@stephenatkins465]

Great video guys, looking forward to seeing this project through to completion. My ideas for the future of your build would be to do a wrap or paint it Matt black with silver/chrome accessories combined with a 3/4 canopy with two spare wheels at the rear. New seats and new interior accessories to make it more comfortable and then offer it as a prize to fund your next project. Everyone’s a winner chicken dinner.

[@william6815]

Half canopy for sure your guys half canopy’s on the single cab 79s looks absolutely mint don’t go full please 👍

[@mitsalloy]

Noted! Guess you will have to stay tuned!

[@russellkellermann9846]

Smoked Bue-Grey with a full length touring canopy. Open twin spares behind the Cab, and canopy to the end.

[@Pik000]

That new Audi/ford raptor grey and half canopy

[@benrobinson767]

this guy should be leading the series

[@Inflamarie]

Keen AF to see this build

[@mitsalloy]

Cheers mate, new episode dropping on Sunday!

[@kyronbyrne2360]

This is awesome ive been waiting for a good single cab build for a long time. Im sick of seeing the majority of 79series builds being the dual cab model. I own a singe cab and cant relate to space for a touring set ups or work when all the dual cabs have smaller canopys and trays. I would definitely be keen to see this thing with a small 800mm dog box/ canopy and another 1200mm canopy behind it to create an over all 3/4 of taken up space on the tray.

[@PaulCoetserBalie]

Looking forward to this build. 1/2 canopy , custom army green

[@thomasschmutter8875]

This huge Ute could, do with some paint somewhere between $72 Pounds, and some Series Accessories for like $150 Pounds can do it but this huge Ripper can give it a bit of a, Service. From Thomas and then if, Needed you can drive it again.

[@christopherzito9528]

A canopy that can be transferred to a duel cab tray if anyone wants to sell their single cab and upgrade to duel cab but keep their set up.

[@mitsalloy]

Forward thinking, I like it!

[@explorethebush]

Nice one Harry, you are good on camera mate! I’d go three quarter canopy so you have bbq space on the back deck and can carry firewood

[@sashaallen4635]

3/4 canopy in Merlo Red

[@mitsalloy]

BIG YES from us. This is one of the front runners!

[@scottys_adventures8455]

Harry looking like a pro mate haha

[@alexjohnson6234]

Vintage gold, 3/4 canopy would be so sick

[@mitsalloy]

This colour is so underrated

[@alexjohnson6234]

MITS Alloy Newcastle it really is, I don’t think I’ve ever seen a sick tray and canopy setup in that colour, mixed with black would be wicked

[@Jaasper.S]

half canopy for sure!

[@mitsalloy]

It's the popular choice by the sounds of it!

[@herethere4x459]

Camo green for sure

[@jacobcross2248]

Champagne gold from Toyota and half cab canopy

[@mitsalloy]

Do you prefer the champagne over the Sandy?

[@juststuffwithwolfe4482]

3:48 bloody hell I want that

[@jackdemeo2031]

Love to see a nardo grey rig something different

[@mitsalloy]

That would look mint!!

[@itsjeffy2292]

3/4 for sure with two spares on the back

[@mitsalloy]

Thanks Mitch! Stay tuned

[@oldluxy]

Olive green 3/4 canopy

[@mitsalloy]

Interesting choice, would be a unique vehicle!

[@Schultzy1992]

The colour I would suggest world rally Subaru blue

[@b_gonzz]

Hopefully you guys keep it white haha, only because I’m currently setting my hdj79 up to travel Australia and can’t decide if I should go full length canopy or around the 1800 length, either way really looking forward to what you guys come up with. Cheers guys 👍🏽

[@mitsalloy]

Thanks for the support mate!

[@jamesbrown1362]

A nice silver colour how much for the stacks

[@mitsalloy]

Already been claimed mate!

[@WaitWhatGQ]

Half canopy all the way

[@timfreeman2603]

Fire-engine Red Full canopy but shorter than towbar

[@mitsalloy]

That would stand out in the crowd for sure!

[@Sphyx-]

How much you looking to sell the quarter canopy that’s already on it for? I’m from Clarence Town so if you’re selling it I’d be keen to come grab it!

[@mitsalloy]

Message us on our FB page mate!

[@harrisonthurston3107]

Me and the 79 come from the same town

[@jarredpaul5255]

sandy taupe xD

[@somefella3303]

Damn, you look super tall.

[@James-hv2vd]

Raptor coat (black or gray)

[@Tuff22_]

Are you selling the stacks

[@mitsalloy]

They've already gone mate!

[@AdamAbello]

awesome a cruiser build video 👍 just what youtube needed, my 2 cents 3/4 canopy RTT, nothing more

[@phalanx3803]

second hand for less then new? yea if you lucky to find one going for less then new. Davison Ford Mildura is selling one for $90k. i have bean look for a 79 for years and have not found many going for less then $60k most below $60k are beaten to hell and back the few good ones get sold in minutes of listing. i was lucky to find a 75 for a reasonably price and wasn't all they way up in QLD.

[@boxheadmr]

3/4 and a nice grey, please not another sandy torpe.

[@mitsalloy]

We like the 3/4 idea :)

[@Madmarty101]

Paint it green

[@michellerice3093]

matt black

[@reeloffroadadventure9076]

Respray come on that’s pretty pricey

[@mitsalloy]

We are going to be taking this build to 4x4 shows and on KZbin trips next year and we have plans to signwrite the vehicle as well, so we need a clean base to start from. A respray is obviously optional, and we will have total build figures at the end that include both the respray and without it for complete transparency

[@reeloffroadadventure9076]

MITS Alloy Newcastle awesome thanks for being open and upfront

[@codysymons7578]

Half

[@brylyn23]

$80,000.00 to much for a mine ute,cant get over how so many have more money than brains..

[@juststuffwithwolfe4482]

Older hiluxs are stronger
