I just found a 85 4runner for sale w/ 189,00. From the pics it looks real clean. It's a 5speed w/ the solid front axle. My question is if any of the experts out there could give me some advice on some questions I should ask the seller specific to this make and model. Also based on what they are asking for it I will be left with a couple thousand to play around with. What are some the best bang for the buck upgrades?

 

having not seen the 4runner your taking about rust,engine,tranny have they been rebuilt all receipts and records for maintance or carfax it incase the owner is lying as for upgrades a 4inch marlin extreme flex kit and gears

 

Find out if the timming chain has ever been changed, if not then it should be done as soon as possible.
