Barn Find, unknown year

Hey guys, I was out cruising back roads this weekend and saw this Yota Hilux sitting in someones barn! I was wondering if anyone knows what year it is?

1968-1971 http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:To...ux_N10_001.JPG At least it looks like that to me.

Thanks xxxtreme22r! It does look like the same body and bumper, but different vent, grill and headlight bezel. Does anybody know if these are year specific?

the one in the photo I posted is also right hand drive, wipers are opposite. Maybe not year specific but location specific ?? Notice also the turn signals are in the upper grill bezel instead of attached to the fender.

I didn't notice the turn signals on the yellow truck the first time I looked. I just thought maybe someone had added the ones on the green truck, but they might be stock.

Personally I don't think so. I thought the same thing, but the tag on the fender says "Hilux"

Definitely not a Stout, those are actually quite a big bigger.
Am on my phone, will see if I can find the stout pic I had saved when I get home

Edit-sorry it is sideways, screen capture on my phone of a Stout.

Anyone else notice the windshield wipers are not mounted in the typical layout? I wonder why
