TacomaDaves 80' pickup buildup thread

Here it is, 1980 body and frame with a 1981 running gear.



22r runs good, but its filthy and the water pump is toast.



Got some work done, got the valve cover off to clean it, radiator out, and old water pump out. New one is in the mail. Pics later it started raining.
