1997 Mitsubishi Triton MK GLX Single Cab Chassis - White - 287,794km - 2.8L Diesel Manual
The Mitsubishi Triton MK generation (1996-2006) established itself as a workhorse across Australian farms, construction sites, and small businesses. The GLX badge positioned this model as a practical, value-focused option in the compact ute segment. This 1997 example represents the early production run of a platform that would prove its durability across two decades of hard use.
This single cab chassis presents as a genuine working vehicle with honest patina reflecting its age and service history. The white paint shows fading and weathering consistent with outdoor storage and regular use, with minor dents visible on the driver side body panel. The chassis and undercarriage display significant surface rust and oxidation typical of a vehicle of this vintage that has seen genuine work. The rear step and bumper show heavy corrosion. Wheels present with visible kerb wear. The interior cabin, accessed through the two-door configuration, shows wear appropriate to the 287,794 kilometres recorded on the odometer. The engine bay reflects the vehicle's working life with typical patina, though the 2.8-litre inline four-cylinder diesel engine remains mechanically sound. This is a genuine, unrestored example of a practical utility vehicle.
At this price point and condition, the Triton MK appeals to buyers seeking an affordable working platform for light landscaping, small business transport, or restoration projects. The manual transmission and diesel engine combination delivers reliable, economical operation. Original single cab chassis variants are increasingly sought by small operators and enthusiasts looking for authentic, usable vehicles rather than cosmetically perfect examples. This is honest, functional transport with genuine character.
