Are you going to use the whole dash assembly? If you aren't going to use the metal frame, I'd be glad to buy it off of you. I just found out tonight that mine was more hacked up that I originally thought

well wasn't able to get out too the parts yard this week but did take it in to get an alignment. That took care of a lot of the wandering it was up too. But still got something loose in the steering.
Also they said the wheels I got won't work on this truck. sad day lol.

Well added some of the pieces from the dash I got. Here is a pic, I added the piece under the guages, and the door for the glove box. I am in the middle of adding the stereo.

Got to figure out what too do with this hole/dent. I guess I need to clean off the paint then remove any rust then try and stop the paint.

However they painted this it seems to be brittle. on the top it is chipping off. Also gota' take care of this. Probably have to clean up and take care of this before winter hits then really fix it next summer.

I almost traded this off this weekend for a 95 4runner, with a 22re. He wanted 500 on top of the truck and I wasn't totally sold on that so the deal fell through. Oh well I like this thing too much too get rid of it that easy, although my girlfriend would have been happy I am sure.

So got the wire harness soldered in this weekend for the stereo, and also cut out all the carpet, and removed all the ply wood. There was so much dirt under the wood. Also like 30 screws. I now have tons of holes in the bed where the seat belts where installed and the seat mounts where and where all those screws where. Found out that my truck was a white truck originally. I couldn't get pictures because it was too dark when I finished.
I am fairly sure I need a new battery. No draw but I still have a very low charge after it sits. Probably get a napa legend agm for replacement.

nice i saw this on the clist from medford. I thought that It had no seats in the back. pretty cool pre4runner. Get did you get interest from around? seems toyotas might as well be made from gold around here as the prices are crazy. good luck if you are trying to sell it. If i was not so committed to my build I probably would try and get it off of you lol
