Well.. nothing broken where it doesn't work - just needs to be fixed still though.

1. Passenger outer CV boot leaking
2. Putting 4 new shocks on (2 leaking - still stock)
3. Rear window is VERY slow.
4. Slow oil pan leak
5. Front diff leaking slowly
6. Front driver's tire rubs when I turn left - need to do some trimming
7. My exhaust is rusty all over the place - want to replace it
8. Car pulls right when I brake hard
9. Tranny pops out of 1st about once a week. (I think I know what it needs)
10. Don't know if the tranny fluid has ever been flushed

My truck is in the shop right now for a HG job. Putting on a new timing belt and some new drive belt pulleys. My valve cover leak will be fixed - it was pretty bad. My power steering leak was worse and it'll be fixed. Just fixed my power window problem - just buffed the contacts on the rocker switch.

After my accident, and before i found out about all the nice aftermarket bumpers, i bought a cheap oem replacement one and the back side is rusting after only a year
i need grill end pieces and a left side corner marker
both fenders are kinda crunched from the accident
one idle pulley needs to get replaced and screams when i go past 3000 rpm
im starting to get suface rust on the front end

Just had the dealer look over my 93 to see what it would take to get back to 100% Seems that it'll take a page of parts, and a total of at least 3 grand. Needs a water pump, timing chain, oil pump, and aux air valve.

A/C, no rust, no problem motors, no loose anything, engine runs like new, a VERY peppy accelaration time, no dents, nothing bent, other than factory saggy ass of which i replaced anyway, my truck might as well be new, i have had my TOYOTA dealers in Canada all say to me that mine is the first SURF in mint condition they have seen.

oh god, when i got it

1.heater controls were busted, old owner got mad. try driving with no defroster in the rain. Fixed

2.heater control valve stuck almsot closed, at certain rpm's i get the running water sound.

3.rusty on the top of the window, when it rained it driped on my nuts or ran down the side of the window and behind the dash, pool on the floor. fixed

4.no rear window, shell rattled like a mofo. got a slider now, no stupid shell.

5.clutch needs to be repalced, master cylinder leaks onto the floor. fixing monday thow

6.valve cover leaked, fixed that the other day

7. got ty millage, new plugs cab n roter, air cleaner fuel filter and wires somewhat fixed that, carb rebuild next, runs good thow

8. Ran hot, almost overheated a few times, restored radiator, new water pump hoses and 2 fluhses later it runs cool. (old water pump fins were almost rusted off)

9.needs new rear drums, pulsates, needs a paint job, imagine a sun burn on a truck, when it peals.

10. this is bugging me the most right now, no tinted windows or day night rear view mirror.
and a$$holes who think high beams are always needed, in big trucks, and those stupid ass h4 lights on bmws and high end cars, people are f'in blind!

i think im done, ohh, having to bend down to change the station or volume, need a cd player with a remote.
