1996 TOYOTA HIACE COMMUTER HIMEDIC AMBULANCE

SOLD
The Toyota Himedic ambulance is an extremely limited production variant of the 100-series Hiace with a bit of a surprise under the "hood" - the legendary 4.0 liter 1UZ-FE V8 engine. This is a factory Toyota conversion carried out by their Conversion Business Unit and outfitted with an extra-high roof for full-standing height capability. This Himedic is SCREAMING for a camper conversion, and has much of the needed infrastructure already in place. This particular specimen was taken to the next level with a Roamer Northwest suspension lift, new BF Goodrich All-Terrain T/A KO2 tires, and a factory snorkel upgrade. It was imported in November 2020 and is offered for your consideration.
