My first rig 81 toyota sr5

Well I went to look at my buddy's sr5 and my pops said if I didn't buy It he was going to so it went on the trailer for 1800. Kid said it ran bad off a stop and had bad mileage but he's a welder not a motor guy so he was happy to see It go to the right person. Sat for 14 years in a garage then pulled out and got new tires and wheels fuel pump and a few more things under the hood. I figured at 65k miles it had to be worth it. I got it home and we tweaked the carb so it ran and idled properly and fixed a fuel leak and that's all it took. Runs like a dream and now I'm lookin for a master cylinder and going to rewire then the fabbing starts. Comments/suggestions/anything welcome thanks!
