My NEW!!! 1985 4Runner - Prettiest 85 out there! - NOW FOR SALE

Now for sale: https://www.yotatech.com/forums/show...970#post673970



I figured this needed a new thread. These pictures dont do it justice. This truck is brand spankning new. It has a mere 32,000 miles on it. All original parts...nothing wrong at all. It is SPANKING NEW! We think the tires are even the originals...the guy has winter tires for it even. It was stored in one of those storage facilities...so it has a bit of a stuffy smell in it. But hell...its sooooo nice. The steering wheel has been covered since day 1. 1 owner...spectacular!

Here we go:

Holy crap. I have never seen an 85 in the condition that is. That thing is the definition of CHERRY my friend. I didn't think it was possible to find something like what you've got. How much did you pay for it?

Wow! What an awesome find. Looks like it was totally restored. Hard to believe that its all original. I'm also curious how much you paid for it. Btw are you loaded in the back or is a saggy rear a problem for 85 runners too?

It's actually not saggy much at all...my driveway is just on a tilt...so its not nearly as bad as it looks in teh pictures.

Sorry Bill...I actually posted on 4x4wire about it when I was looking at it. I knew there were are few STL boys over here...didnt want one of yall to sneak it out from under me.

Truck has ZERO restoration...thats all original

Thumbs up

That is one beautiful rig. I'm thinking "collector's item"

If I had one in that condition, I'd probably put it back into one of those storage facilities.

That thing is in better shape than my 96, and I take good care of mine. Sweet find, but I sure wouldn't want to go off-road in it.
