Looks to be in great condition. What are your plans for it?

That looks great! There's one on Expo that is the same color with the 87 style stripes. Voodu blue looks good on the 1st gens.

The new 4Runner looks great. That IS a great color.

It's a bone stock (non SR5) model (minus the tacoma wheels) that was originally the beige/tan color with brown interior. Going to restore this one back to original color and add white wagon wheels with all terrains, possibly mud terrains. Has a minor amount of rust over the doors and around the front windshield and along the very bottom of fenderwells, frame is immaculate.

Truck has 205k original miles and is a 5 speed, everything works.

Holy crap that is one sick rig. I really like the "retro modern" paint scheme using new colors but with the classic stripe pattern.

Thanks for sharing.

@OP: that's a great looking truck, but restoring to original is never a bad option. I hope it's a fun build! Keep us posted!

First of many resto mods to come. The neat thing about this reproduction shift knob is this was the exact same one I had on my first Toyota, when I learned to drive a 5spd. It was a 1976 Corolla hatchback.
