Yota's 82 pickup
 

A friend of mine decided last month that instead of selling this truck to strangers, he was going to give it to me instead. I graciously accepted.
We decided to name him carl. lol i dont know why but it was funny.

this is where he's been sitting for the last 2 yrs infront of my friends parents place.

He wanted to keep his wheels so i brought the old set my 85 came on.

also attached the inner walls of the bed off the 85 to a pallet and attached that onto the frame to cover up all the mess that was the frame haha.

Nice Yota. How much engine work was done and how does it run?

brakes and slave were locked when i got it. i put gas in it and it started. runs and now drives. smokes a bit. less when warm. p/o says it heats up after a long drive. so coolant flush and a new carb would be nice.

sold. and parted out,
goodbye carl.
