Here's a survivor you don't see every day-a 1975 Chevrolet LUV with
just 31,000 original miles, one owner, and the rare Mikado trim
package. Born from Chevy's partnership with Isuzu, the LUV (Light
Utility Vehicle) hit American streets as a compact, fuel-efficient
alternative to the full-size haulers of the day, and this one is a
time capsule in every sense of the word. Finished in classic
work-truck white with 14-inch steel wheels and poverty caps, it
keeps the original '70s charm alive.
Under the hood, the factory 1.8-liter 4-cylinder still hums like it
did in '75, paired with a 4-speed manual that makes this
lightweight pickup genuinely fun to row through the gears. It's
simple, efficient, and built with the kind of honest engineering
you just don't find anymore. The power brakes and 4-wheel drum
setup are factory stock and deliver a driving experience that's
pure analog and totally engaging.
What makes this truck special isn't just its condition-it's the
Mikado trim package. This was the top-of-the-line offering for LUVs
at the time, featuring upgraded interior touches, subtle badging,
and a splash of style in an otherwise utilitarian package. The tan
vinyl bench seat is clean and original, with the kind of wear you'd
expect from a truck that's been babied its whole life. The factory
AM radio still sits proudly in the dash, ready to bring back the
golden days of gas crunch cruising.
Out back, the bed is ready for light-duty hauling or just hauling
attention at your next local cruise night. A rear receiver hitch
adds a bit of versatility, but let's be real-this truck's not about
towing. It's about nostalgia, rarity, and rolling up with something
different than the sea of overbuilt modern rigs and cookie-cutter
classics.
With its low miles, single ownership, and original charm, this LUV
is the real deal for collectors, import fans, or anyone looking to
relive the days when less really was more. Affordable, rare, and
untouched-this Chevy is ready to bring the love back to the
road.
