Although there aren't any real compact pickups still being sold in America, they were once a huge part of the pickup market, despite the fact that most of them faced a 25% import fee better known as the "chicken tax." in the 1970s, Datsun, Toyota, Mitsubishi, Mazda, and Isuzu all competed for buyers of these small pickups, although not always under their own names.
Seeing the popularity of these vehicles fairly early on and not having anything domestically-produced to compete with them, both Ford and General Motors worked with foreign partners - Mazda and Isuzu, respectively - to source competitors that could be sold as captive imports. Mazda sold trucks under its own name, including the very interesting Rotary Pickup, while Ford sold a variant of their pickup as the Courier. Later, Chrysler would import Mitsubishi pickups as the Plymouth Arrow pickup and Dodge Ram 50.
GM used the Isuzu Faster, a car-based pickup that was essentially the front half of an Isuzu Florian with a pickup bed. This truck debuted in 1972 as the Chevrolet LUV (Light Utility Vehicle), and was quite popular. GM also found a way to price it lower by getting around the "chicken tax" - they imported the trucks with only the cab and chassis installed, and then installed the beds in the United States, resulting in only a 4% import tariff.
The original LUV wasn't a bad truck but the Florian was aging even in 1972, and by 1980 the competition had moved on. So Isuzu redesigned the Faster and it arrived at U.S. Chevrolet dealers in late 1980 in a totally new form. Bang up to date, it was a much better truck, with more flexibility and more rugged underpinnings.
But by the early eighties GM and Ford were both working on small trucks of their own that were just a little bit bigger than the Japanese trucks. These domestically-produced designs would be hugely popular and have long production runs, and the first arrived in the fall of 1981 as the Chevrolet S-10, which debuted as a 1982 model. A year later, the Ford Ranger debuted.
The presence of the S-10 meant that Chevy no longer needed the LUV, and so the model was dropped in 1982. By then, Isuzu had started selling vehicles under it's own label in the United States and the pickup became the Isuzu P'up.
This mk2 LUV is fairly rare, as these trucks were only available for about 18 months. The Isuzu-branded version continued into 1987.
Much later, in 1996, Isuzu would begin selling a variant of the Chevy S-10 (by then in it's second generation, but basically still the same 1982 design under the skin) as the Isuzu Hombre.
The "BIO" added to the diesel badge on this one hints at an obvious and popular (nowadays) conversion. Another period small pickup, a Volkswagen Caddy, can be seen in the background.

Shot in... Paris with my... Compact camera, it fell in some vodka at some point I think, so it is a bit blurry at the center.
Source: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sandugo
The Sandugo was a blood compact, performed in the island of Bohol in the Philippines, between the Spanish explorer Miguel López de Legazpi and Datu Sikatuna the chieftain of Bohol on March 16, 1565, to seal their friendship as part of the tribal tradition. This is considered as the first treaty of friendship between the Spaniards and Filipinos. "Sandugo" is a Visayan word which means "one blood".
The Sandugo is depicted in both the provincial flag and the official seal of the government in Bohol. It also features the image of the blood compact. The top of the seal explains the history behind the Sandugo event that occurred in Bohol, the fleet and the location where the Spaniards anchored and the place where the treaty was conducted which was dated on March 16, 1565
My collection of super-compact 35mm cameras was recently greatly expanded when a freind of mine gave me his entire collection of cameras! So 3 Rolleis (35, 35 S and 35 LED) and 1 Minox (EL) were added to the Olympus XA and Petri Color 35 D I already owned.
The Rolleis, particularly the 35 and 35 S, are gorgeous, beautifully made, little cameras. But ergonomically they are... well... something of a challenge! Practically every single control is in a different place from almost every other camera, and they have the most diabolical battery compartment (inside the film chamber!!) ever invented LOL Just as well the batteries don't need changing very often.
Having said that I recently ran a film through the Rollei 35 and I found it to be much nicer in practice than I was expecting.
