Let me know. I have an original steering wheel that needs rewrapped, factory steelies, and new old stock marker lenses.
Cool, if you could, shoot me some pictures.
I have yet to go run around the local U-pull-it yards and such, and hope to find some stuff there. Again, we shall see.

Also if i remember correctly, there is a guy in wendell that has lots of old yota parts
my fathers 1982 toy. with step side box (ive read that they are rare) he is the second owner he bought it in 1985 from the first owner who bought it for the dealer with the step side already on it
[I]this picture was taken in the mid 80's. back tire's and rims off a cat 980. there is shake blocks between the springs and the frame and shake blocks in the box to keep the sides from collapsing. it's just about 6,500 pounds
Just picked up this 83 2WD, it needs a ton of TLC, i don't even know where to start. lol
(Carfax says it has 10 records, I dont have carfax, but hopefully not too bad)

First Priority
Flasher (blinkers, hazards) - Do they not work altogether, or are the bulbs just missing?
Door Panels - I'd had TAP Plastics cut mine out of ABS plastic. They work. Some neoprene insulation backing them helps cut out noise
Shifter Boot
Seats (possibly just reupholster)
- Civic and Corolla seats are popular affordable junkyard swaps. They're fairly easy to install
Secondary priority
Cutout rust, weld in new panels (inside bed)
Paint - Rattle-can paint jobs work wonders!
Suspension
Rebuild motor, Tranny, Drivetrain
Welcome!
I have a few ideas to consider in green. Sounds like a nice project!
My two cents would be to avoid cutting panels unless you or someone you know has the resources and skills to tend to it. That's how I've humpty-dumptyed my last projects.
Yea, i'm going to use a PDF file (hopefully), & cut the sheet metal out on a plasma table.
Blinker/Hazards are fixed, was just a loose/bad connection in the column.
I did find some decent seats for a great price, but not sure i want the cloth material, im thinking all vinyl would be better, we'll see.
So i guess my next, & highest priority is now a shifter boot.. 2WD ones are hard as heck to find.!

Oh, cool! That sounds like a great plan for the new sheet metal!
Having grown up around a single-cab S10 with vinyl seats, I think cloth is the way to go, especially if you like wearing shorts in the summer.
looks like a chevy conversion bed based on the side of the fenders
It could very well be, they all kind of look the same to me.
There were a couple of kids running around town with one of those stepside beds fitted into a third-gen 2WD Toyota. It was uglier than sin, but I guess it worked.
