From Wikipedia
The
Toyota Blizzard is a four-wheel-drive vehicle built by
Daihatsu for Toyota from March 1980 into the 1990s. The
LD10 Blizzard is based on the
Daihatsu Taft (also known as the Scat), but in the third quarter of 1984 the
LD20, based on the
Daihatsu Rugger (Rocky in most export markets), appeared. The Blizzard was only intended for the Japanese domestic market.

It is a rare Toyota vehicle with less than a dozen known examples in North America. Visually very similar to the Daihatsu vehicles, they were rebadged by Toyota and utilize Toyota engines.
The Blizzard was originally equipped with the naturally aspirated
L diesel, but beginning in the summer of 1984, they came equipped with the 2.4-litre
2L or the
2L-T turbodiesel. The engines were originally coupled to a Toyota 4-speed manual transmission, while 1983+ models came with a 5-speed.
