That's a sweet truck! You don't see many '84 4Runners around anymore. Must be the 22R or something. How's that 350 treatin' ya?

EDIT: Welcome to YT!

Nice truck- I'll bet it moves pretty good...

Pics too big? Go to http://www.microsoft.com/windowsxp/d...powertoys.mspx - scroll down, download "Image resizer" on the right. It takes a few seconds and it's simple to quickly resize a picture to upload.

Nice rig. I agree with Marko you don't see many '84 'runners around, especially in the Northeast. I also thought I'd mention that if you're looking for some guys to go wheeling with, you might think about joining NE4ROC.org, since most of the members live around Boston. See the link in my sig.

Thank's guys

I havent had the truck out on the trail yet. But it did a nice burn out with the 35's.
Since I got the truck, I swaped motors had to redo the body and top (as you see in the pics) Cut a hole in the floor to make room for the transfer case shifter, mount a plate down for my ratchet shifter, and replaced the windshield and so much more. I still need to do some electrial work, refinish my light bar, bed liner the bed(cab already done) make a bed in the back and it seems like 500 more hours of work.

Once I get it running right and trail ready I plan on taking it out to the Berkshires. (Old Florida road and other places out that way).

Nice truck! You sound like you know some of the area, have you wheeled out here with other clubs before?

I go Black bear hunting every year out that way and two of the guys i go with have 2 new jeep rubicons. So every since i went off roading while i was hunting i've be hooked and told my friends I was going to get a 4x4 a few weeks later i had one, now its been 2 year and I'm hoping to finish it soon.

I sent a email to www.ne4roc.org and sent a email to get access but no word yet.
