Free 4Runner!

My brother purchased this 1995 4Runner back in '97. He kept it until last week and then he purchased a new Nissan Pathfinder. Rather than trading it into the dealership and letting them scrap it, he decided to give it away! I am the lucky recipient of the 4Runner. It has the 3.0 engine, 2WD, 169k miles, and cold A/C!

It does need some minor work...new brakes/rotors, power stereo anteanna doesnt work, 3rd brake light housing is damaged, and needs a minor tune-up. Too bad its not a 4WD but its fun to drive around Houston!

I can post more pics later if anyone is interested. Right now this is the only pic I have. Right now the 4Runner is missing the 2 front wheel caps from the rims, lol. Tell me what you think!

Nothing beats free!
Looks to be in awesome shape also.

It's a 2WD which seems to be the only issue I'd have with it but hey, beggers can't be choosers, right?

Look forward to more pics.

i do think you mean a 3.4 swap, unless you plan to swap in the 2.4L 22re?

seriously though; I mean, there's deathcougar's deathrunner 1st gen, that IMO looks prerunner, even if it is 4wd, and that's not the look he's going for but I don't recall ever seeing a 2nd gen with glass fenders and an LT kit. but I think the back might take a little gutting, as it'll be a little heavy
