Yep and thats what its done ever since we got it. I never really even got to take it out.

 

bhah

JSYK: Your username and avatar might be alittle misleading to some single guys on here...

 

misleading how? I freaking LOVE my avatar

 

I actually really like your avatar... I think I want a print for my house, seriously.

 

Thanks. I like her too. She isn't so over-the-top but she is still sexy. I really like old pin-ups, I always wanted to do a pin-up on my bf's 72 Scamp.

 

Finally got it!!!!!!!!!!!!! I picked it up this afternoon and messed around with it and got to to start when we used starter fluid and we realized we needed to do a carb rebuild, so that will be done in the upcoming week. Here are some pictures of I took of it, there are a few that show some rust damage. Enjoy!

 

am i the only one who never had mechanical issues with the jeeps i've owned? lol



nice truck,looks like a great project. i wish i could find a nice early 80s yota

 

Thanks. Yeah the Jeep had a bad starter but every time we had it tested it passed..... finally we just bought a new one because that was the only thing we hadn't tried, but hey, it worked!

 

Little rough around the edges, but nothing that cant be fixed !!

 

yeah it's going to need some serious cancer repair... i'm not worried too much though, just gotta get it where the box won't fall off lol. the 20r should be running relatively soon. needs a brake job too, it was an interesting tow to the school behind my friends truck with such bad brakes.

 

Man, i thought that my kickpanals were bad. its repairable!! Yoda Jims should have floors for ya. just finished mine. and there sweet.

 

they are finicky, but i love yotas and jeeps equally. i learnt how to drive when i was 12 in a 45 cj2A.
85 was the worst year for jeep cherokees, absolute junk parts in them.

your truck sure has allot of cancer, but i like to see someone restoring something others would consider junk

 

Great Truck! i love the look of the early toyota trucks, especially the bed, with the outer rail. Plus think of it this way, your truck came with balls, i'm still waiting for the other to descend on my 03 taco. J/K (balls=solid axle in case you did get that)

 

I thought you were refering to the white wheels ...

 

Nice floors! haha

All these 1st gens floating around recently makes me want to get another one...

 

Do it! They are great old rigs!

 

Hey man, I saw this truck for sale on the Trail Krawlers board.. You on the local board there? We oughta get out and wheel together some time, I'm in Manhappenin, KS... I almost bought that truck..

 

Man, hope my floors don't look like that. I just bought a '80 longbed, yesterday, w' a 4" suspension, and 3" body (removing) sittin' on 33" bfg mt's. I pulled the carpet back and found some rust, mainly under the seat and by the petals. With a random hole behind the driver seat.

What are your plans to repair that, you gonna get new floor pans, or try to weld in some patches.

 

The op is a female lol.

 

Yeah, I am a girl but its cool, my bf calls me dude all the time.
Yes, I'm on Trail Krawlers. My name on there is cherokeebaby.... I traded the cherokee for this truck. I think I need a new name I'm in Mcpherson, KS which is about 2 hours away. We should make a trip to Tuttle once I get my Yota going. Keep me posted on wheeling trips and I'll keep you posted on my yellow beast
