Looking for a 79' - 88' Pickup

I sold my 91' Pickup (got a great offer I couldn't turn down, made some good money on it) Now i'd like another truck. I've got about 3K or so to spend, shoot me some offers. Located in Eastern PA.

Found this truck in my local craigslist. Called the guy and he was supposed to call the same night with directions, he never called back.

Yeah I like to say that all my vehicles are for sale for the right price.

Saved the header for the 86' 4Runner!

haha I cant say that about my 4Runner :/ A guy came up to me and offered a relatively clean fj40 with a turbo 400 tranny and a 350 in it. it needed a little rust help but it was a clean rig regardless... I couldn't bring myself to do it hah

And sweet man! put that sucker on. it'll be a nice sounding runner!

Yeah my 4Runner is the only vehicle i'll own that will not be for sale.

As far as the exhaust goes, I'd have it in already if it weren't for the little problem of finding a way to drive it over to the exhaust shop with open headers...

that shouldn't be a problem... the lce is a direct bolt-in, you should be able to retain everything from the cat-back

Well the LCE is a 2.25" diameter while the stock is 1.75" or 1.5" IIRC.

did you get this one?

http://www.toyotacatalog.net/M1WebGe...e-afd57b01689e

LCE uses all 304 1-½" stainless steel tubing...

...This header kit is a direct fit for 85-95 4-Wheel drive trucks, and includes an adjustable connector pipe to connect to the factory catalytic converter.

i have a 1980 pickup with a 6' flatbed. i have already done most of the work for the 3.4 conversion (motor mounts, trans mount, 3.0 5spd trans, battery tray switched to other side of engine compartment, made new crossover pipe, etc.). i have a running 3.4 from a 98 runner, but the wiring is killing me and i have totally lost all interest in it. there is a lot of $ and time invested... would u be interested. the truck has a 4" or 6" lift and 33" tires. for the right price, i would give a set of like-new swamper TSL (36x12.5x15) tires to go with.

Not really looking for a project, and Florida is a bit far away. Thanks though.

Dude, i did it with open HEADERS on a 3.0 drove like 10.5 miles twice with it like that... probably the most looks my truck has ever gotten in its life. haha
