you bought the one on craigslist?
thought that might catch your eye...can I come over monday to check it out

edit:
Pic of a Mojave 4x4 I found on google:

not exactly stock with regard to the snow plow and boggers but it gives you the idea...

 

easy enough to strip the plow and change the tires back...

It did catch my eye and I picked it up this afternoon, got home tonight. It needs some work, but has good bones. You bet you can come take a look at it Monday

 

Anxiously awaiting some pics, Paul!

 

I will get some up in today for sure. I have to get it off the trailer first

 

I am not sure if I am allowed to just post a link to my photobucket account for my Limited edition truck, but there are over 50 pictures, so too many to post. If I am not supposed to do this, I can edit or start my own thread for this truck with a link.

SWEET truck Paul...looks like you've got some work to do.

 

Some work and somewhere to park it. Too many Toyotas at my house...if there is such a thing

 

it was pretty cool to see your new acquisition still on the trailer today Paul...just pave your front yard and you will be fine on space
and i checked the 4 speed shift knob i have, it is not inlaid like yours but the knob itself is in good shape...you can probably just pop the inset out and put yours in it...

 

Glad you liked it. Wasn't that my shifter knob to start with The truck needs a lot that is for sure, but I think I already have most of, if not all of, what I need to get the job done. I dont think the neighbors would like it if I paved any more of the yard.

 

Paul Congrats! Almost all original, great truck! There's always room here in San Diego for your trucks! Look forward to seeing it cleaned up..tony

 

Yep it is still yours, whenever you want it back.
I wonder how much James Dean would charge to make the stripe kit needed on these special edition.
It was cool to see a piece of history up close, all you need now is a Trailblazer and a Breaker Breaker

 

I emailed James Dean already with a brochure picture asking for a quote on the stripes. I saw that a few others wanted to get them made too.

DOnt forget the Toyota mini van and wolverine. I know where there is a mini van 2WD version and a Wolverine here locally. Never seen the breaker braker up close, but you saw my article and paperwork on all the toyota conversion trucks. Paving the lawn is next I guess

 

go for the minivan, a guy on another shift at work at a toyota 4x4 van he wheels out at Brown's camp

 

ROFL not that kind of mini van. I guess we need to have some refresher time with my old magazines. I thought I showed you the cell phone pics I had of that truck too. You are off work tomorrow, so come on by.

 

might be able to make it...wife and kids also have the day off so I will know my schedule as soon as they figure it out for me

 

LOL I get it- You are saying you wont be coming by today

 

this is how my '79 is configured

 

Very nice truck paul. I wish i could find a sucker like that. Somebody didnt know what thay had. Awesome score not to bad of shape, mine was rusted in half. Good luck on the build, hope to see pictures.

 

is that a tilt column in there? never seen one in a first gen
