1980 Toyota Pickup - Help finding wheels
I accidentally posted this in the build up section - sorry for the double post if you saw that...
Hi all! I'm new here, but have a feeling I'll be here a lot in the coming months/years haha. I have a '80 Toyota pickup. My dad bought it brand new, and has taken good care of it (It was my high school car in the 90s). It runs well, and recently my wife and I have decided to put some money into restoring it (has small ammount of rust, no rot, which is great - currently it's garraged)
My first main question is where to find original 15in (6 lug) steel wheels and caps? I've searched eBay and Google, but can't seem to find any (most of what I find are 14in 5 lug). Any ideas or help in finding these would be much appreciated!!
The pic attached is the end goal for the truck.

Hello Doug & welcome to Yota Tech! Great to see that you're keeping the "family tradition" alive!
Give Yoda Jim's a try for the wheels. I've gotten an exhaust manifold & gas tank from them for my '78 longbed. Parts were good & prices were fair. Just make sure you are specific with them about the wheel size & lug count. We had a bit of a misunderstanding on the exhaust manifold (I swear I told them for 20R, they sent a 22R manifold) but they did make things right in the end, so no real gripes here.

That's the only good source I have, wish I had more to give you. Happy Hunting!

I found a genuine OEM Toyota parts listing page showing wheel options based on your model. It looks like there are 15in options. You can verify fitment by entering your VIN for accuracy or to narrow down options. Here's the link to the page https://www.toyotapartsdeal.com/part...tml?PNC=42601F

I ordered mine from Cruiser Corps. Looks like they might be out of stock currently, but you can ask them when they will be getting some in. They also carry the caps.
