Crapper Paul S. sent these commercials in and writes:
Here’s some wacky Toyota commercials from the 1980s that apparently ran on Australian television featuring different wrestlers- Iron Shiek, George “The Animal” Steele”, Paul Roma, Steve Lombardi, and S.D Jones,
I love The Iron Sheik doing the triumphant jump at the end of his commercial!
YEAH!
WHATTATOYOTA! *Vinny Mac’s voice”
So it is true whenever Sheiky baby gets out of a vehicle he is high. Did they draw straws for the last commercial to get the most random people possible for it?
Wow, I never knew George the Animal Steele had such a vertical leap!
Paul Roma AND SD Jones? WIN WIN WIN!
These are cool.
The guys at Top Gear later proved that Mean Gene wasn’t kidding when he said there was no way you could break a Toyota Hilux.

Clearly a truck worthy of George Steele.
I remember watching that. It was unreal.
