Trooper drawings

 

Isuzu Trooper/Bighorn

Badge engineering is big business and it didn’t get any bigger than Isuzu in the 1990s. Their second generation Trooper (also called an Isuzu Bighorn and an Isuzu Trooper Bighorn) was sold with eight different badges and they weren’t all General Motors brands. So, in alphabetical order, they were:

Acura SLX
Chevrolet Trooper
Isuzu Bighorn
Holden Jackaroo
Holden Monterey
Honda Horizon
Opel Monterey
Subaru Bighorn
Vauxhall Monterey

Holden also turned it into a concept car, The Jack8, a revamped roofless two-door powered by GM’s Gen III V8.

99 Trooper off-roading in California

Clean 2000 Trooper

So I found these photos of a 2000 Trooper in pretty much pristine condition.

I wanted to post them here just as a reference to compare to my 99 Trooper of the same color, condition however is another story.

But it is good to have a reference.

Trooper with ladder

I was hoping to find a photo of a Trooper with a ladder on back door.

I wasn't sure if they made them and it's something I'm wanting to add to mine some time down the road.

Welcome 2018

91 Trooper with a pop-up tent on the roof

91 Trooper

Notice the scorpion and N-1575 painted on the back.

Something military perhaps?

89 Trooper

These Trooper photos might be a regular thing on the blog here for quite some time now.

Another Trooper

1999 Isuzu Trooper

I bought a 1999 Isuzu Trooper yesterday. I took a chance on it because it has only 119k miles.

It has a little bit of body damage but nothing major. I'm hoping to get it to look as good as this on someday.
