Current asking price is $5,300 /OBO
Selling my 1985 4Runner due to angry wife's request.
It doesn't get used enough... it mostly sits on my driveway and that's why the wife wants it gone. I feel that I should pass this onto someone who will actually FEED IT DIRT!
I'm sure there is stuff I'm forgetting as well. If you would like to reduce the price a little, I will knock off $200 if you don't want the soft top.
It's best if you just come check out this amazing and hard to find rig. You won't be disappointed.
PLEASE NOTE:
I have noticed the tranny slipping here and there, so I bought another one from a rolled '87. Just clean it up and it will bolt right on. The spare tranny is included with the sale. I also have a bunch of other parts that will come with this rig.
If you have any questions, please message me or send me a text to 805-405-3692
Thanks for looking!

Yeah... that won't work. I drive with windows down in my Tahoe and first thing she does is roll up her window. Then 2 min later she asks if I can roll them all up. Pretty sure getting rid of the wind machine would make her giddy!
