yea I wish I had waited a year or so to buy mine...price is nearly half as much now as what I paid...talk about buyers remorse!

4runnin2 · 08-24-2008, 04:42 PM

Definetly wish I had waited to buy one. Like you said they are going for just about half the price I paid two years ago. I went past a lot this morning that had a 99 on it. auto,4x4 with 110,000 only $5000 and it was even black. LOL
Oh well, I'll let mine sit in the garage and drive it every now and then on the weekends. It will be worth a mint in 20 years, haha

Ron Helmuth · 09-06-2008, 08:07 AM

bump

I have notified Virginia member in t4r.org classifieds of this vehicle.

Ron

4runnin2 · 09-06-2008, 06:06 PM

Thanks Ron for helping spread the word. On Yotatech alone I think it has had more than 2400 visits which I think is pretty insane. I have it listed on Ih8mud.com,ttora.com and t4r.org also and it still hasn't sold.

Sooooo.......come next weekend, as long as no one says they want it by then. I am going to pull it into the shop and start the tear down. As much as I hate to do it. It looks like the only way I am going to be able to get the money I want out of it. I made up a spreadsheet the other night of all the stuff I had on it (I know, Get a life). I listed everything I could take off of it, Basically take it to stock. I have most of the stock stuff so it won't be too hard. Asking about half price for all the stuff I take off besides the bumpers I will ask about 70% for them. I still came up with about 4 grand worth of sales in parts. after that I am sure I can sale the truck for at least $4500. Which is more than I am getting for just selling it outright. Sucks I have to do a weekends worth of work to do it but I guess thats the way it has to go.

Ron Helmuth · 09-07-2008, 07:53 AM

that is a shame sir.

Did you try some GMC forums or Ford forums?- I have to think someone would appreciate the amount of work and want to downsize-save gas.

please keep me in mind for those gorgeous fender flares. I sure hope you do not have to part out you mods. I will continue to push and bump your vehicle to the top every chance I get.

giguchan · 09-07-2008, 09:10 AM

Best i can say is good luck. maybe you can get what you want for the truck and then sell the parts to make up whatever difference your after.
Again good luck.

4runnin2 · 09-07-2008, 01:56 PM

yep, Looks like I can make a little more than what I am asking for it right now by doing that.

El Duderino · 09-15-2008, 07:34 PM

Interested in selling your arb bumper?

giguchan · 09-15-2008, 07:45 PM

I wonder what the ARB people would have in a nice bumper for my 97...something not too rough looking but something to make it stand out... guess it's off to the website.

4runnin2 · 09-15-2008, 07:51 PM

El Duderino: Sold it this weekend!

giguchan: Look at the pics of my truck and you will see what ARB makes for a 97

I have a post in the for sale section with all of the parts I am selling off my truck.

Just search under my name and look for all posts!

Bryan

giguchan · 09-15-2008, 07:57 PM

Thanks for the reply.
I'll look it over... I am looking to changing the bumpers.. not sure if i want to stay chrome or go black.. might be too much black.

Mtn Mike · 09-15-2008, 07:59 PM

Too bad you can't keep your nice truck. It's buyers market.

FWIW, your loss is my gain! I picked up a 2000 4Runner last month for a good price. I've wanted another Toyota truck for a while and it seemed like now was the time to buy. So far it's been a great rig and I hope to keep it a while.

Mike <--first post here

4runnin2 · 09-15-2008, 08:00 PM

There is no such thing as too much black. However there is such a thing as too much chrome!! haha

Your looking about 8-$900 for a new ARB

p.s. great forum. I've learned a lot

4runnin2 · 09-15-2008, 08:01 PM

I've learned alot too. Ouch!

giguchan · 09-15-2008, 08:07 PM

Yeah huh?
Black IS my favorite color in ANY vehicle... the chrome is starting to "cancerize in the rear" and the front has the water spots. i saw the bumpers but i'm sorry to say.. dont GRAB me... i knew they were up there in price.. but i'd need two...
I've already done the math.

4runnin2 · 09-18-2008, 07:57 PM

Ended up deciding not to part her out for awhile. I sold the bumpers off of her but also dropped the price. Everything else is still on the truck and is in great shape. new price $7,000

giguchan · 09-18-2008, 08:02 PM

prolly too much damn work to remove all them goodies!
I think you should sit back now and hopefully the Tire kickers will come up with some ca$h and then stop fooling round.

I'm sure she will go now! Glad you decided to keep her intact.
