My friend has a 1986 4Runner that he is thinking of selling. He got it about 3 months ago for a deal, it sat at my house and we put a new head on because when he got it the head gasket was blown and we had a new head available in better condition. Now he is thinking of something with a little more power and a little newer (3rd gen 4runner or 2nd gen 4runner and doing 3.4 swap). He is also tossing around ideas of doing a 3.4 swap and auto -> manual swap on this truck.

Basically what I want to know is what you guys think the truck will go for, and if there is alot of demand for it (since it is turbo and has the turbo trans). Also, if there would be a demand for just the motor and trans if he were to 3.4 swap the truck.


Here are the specs:

- 86 4runner
- Black
- Salvage title (previous owner said it was due to theft)
- Body is in Great condition
- Paint is in good condition
- Interior is fairly rough but all electrical works
- Full power options (Power windows, locks, rear wiper)
- 4WD
- 22-RET (Turbo)
- Automatic
- 113k miles on odometer
- Previous owner claimed only 40k miles on engine
- New top end with 0 miles on it.
- New radiator
- New BFG Rugged trail tires on Tacoma/Tundra 5-star swirl wheels
- Smittybuilt front and rear bumpers

 

if he does the swap let me know how much he wants for the turbo engine!

 

Any pics or price?

 

Most people who want a turbo trans want the MANUAL for the bell housing...

 

Im interested in the truck but i would have to sell mine firsts. how much for the whole thing?
