well im looking at restoring the interior of my 87 and i wanted to see if anyone knew where i could get new pieces. i found a place that has new dash boards but i cant remember where

also what kind of spray paint should i get for painting panels and such, btw it has the porno red interior (dont know if there's an actual name)

any help would be great, thanks chris

 

Porno red....nice.

EBAY

just keep haunting the same search over and over like i do and you will eventually come up with stuff.

the interior on our 88 was terrible, but after being gutted ,i painted all the panels......clean them up nice and use a plastic primer and then you can use whatever color or type of paint you want.

i'll see if i have any decent pics

 

the start



the difference between the 2 grays.....



The finished product

 

92TOY, That looks pretty darn good. very fresh. Where'd you get the new looking carpet for that Runner.

Use SEM vinyl spray

 

pressure washed the hell out of all the carpets.......when i was looking at about $300 to replace all of them we thought we ought to mak an effort......was able to save all of them....the tailgate one is from EBAY.....much better than what was there.

back to the original post...........over the last 4 months since we've had this 4runner, i have encountered many people "parting out" them on EBAY...so you just have to be vigilant.

thanks for the compliments.

 

92 TOY yours turned out GREAT! and the roll bar looks really good too, unfortunately my panels are in much worse condition and cracked, but looks like i can find some good stuff on ebay.

does toyota have a specific name for the red or is it just red? lol sorry for the questions.

 

Thanks.......try super glue.

notice there's no speaker behind the speaker holes, just a painted pice of plastic.

 

Some models had a speaker behind those holes.

 

When i pressure washed my carpet a while back, i used the oxy fabric cleaner with amazing results
what did you use?

 

You can get Duplicolor vinyl and plastic spray paint at O-O-O-O'reily's Auto Parts. Just clean well with acetone first. Make sure you get all the little nooks and crevices cleaned.

 

sorry for the link to another page but maybe this can help you out???

has all the color codes and numbers. for all 1st gens
i believe this guys trying to make a database of all toyotas???

 

yeah, no trace of any speakers.

oxy...something shampoo,blue coral shampoo, simple green, lots of elbow grease.

 

ck the classifieds on this site....there are a few peeps parting out stuff....i just got interior stuff for my 88...think most of the parts will work for your 87 too....as long as you go 88 and under......although i don't know about your "porno" red, mine is just plain grey...

 

good stuff thanks for the info guys

 

hey 99sr5.........

found these rear compartment doors on EBAY.......

i've seen interior vinyl paint at the autoparts store before. i think krylon makes it? not 100% sure of the brand, but they have all kinds of colors.

 

i thing rustoleum has a new "any surface" spray also.

 

those cargo doors are nice. i might throw a bid in. thanks!

 

not sure where you live in relation to where these panels are located but i just found these on EBAY.......you would have to go and get them near Lancaster Pennsylvania...definitely worth the trip if you are close enough.......i will keep watching for stuff......i'm always on the prowl for stuff like this.

this is a listing for the 2 large back panels for the bed area of the 4runner....
