Chim77's 1987 2WD

Hello

I have lurked and watched threads for several years but the only forum I actually post on is Marlin. Now I have a little 87 2WD and figured I would start a thread for it here

In case you are curious you can see my 1st gen 4Runner build on marlin... Solid axle, body and 3RZ swapped http://board.marlincrawler.com/index.php?topic=78456.0

Here is the little old man truck I as got it.






Nice low miles too!

I have only had it a few weeks and I am in the tune-up, clean-up and make bearable for daily driving phase

First thing I did was rip out the seat cover to find a decent seat underneath..

Ripped out the nasty old stereo!

Needed to replace the heater control face plate and put a clock in...
Before:

After:

Then took off the old man canopy





I have some other parts on the way for the interior re-work...
After I get the interior in a little better shape and the engine tuned up I will start on cosmetics.
