I looked at the photo of the truck and seems to be in decent condition. The first generation trucks are being cut up for off road, rock climbing, etc. use and they will eventually be scrapped so if you like the style of the first generation series and you plan on keeping it then buy it. The value of the first generation Toyota trucks will go pretty high eventually.

honestly I can already tell you want the truck and are willing to pay 6k so i would say get it and just try to talk him down on price but bring the 6k just incase he doesnt wanna take less

Well a little bit of modernizing and a lot of work to make it legal it will be cool, hard for us to judge anything with the info we have, 35 to 37's are going to run you a pretty penny plus how is the suspension set up, I'm not an expert with suspension but to undo all that lift depending on how its done is more of a redo to get it functional. By the time your done it will be cool as hell but how much total are you looking to spend is the deciding factor.

Looked at it tonight!! this thing is imaculate!!! has abunch of trophys that come with it it has one some pretty big truck shows in her day. honestly i was expecting an ok condition truck but this thing had absolutely NO rust. Definetely never seen mud and barn stored. Looks like a west coast gem. full toneau cover, lights on roll bar with six kc daylighters, custom steps, custom bumper, interior is Amazing, sunroof, exhaust and header look better than new. truck runs like a champ/ tranny is super tight.. three steering stabilizers, 23 shocks in all, and best part is its only going to be legal(just about lol) with 38s so i dont even need to touch the lift kit. this thing is amazing i commited to buying it so more pics to come!!! alot more pics. now i officially am the owner of a toyota!!(:
