New 84 Toyota pickup

Just found this gem and got it home. Only has 27k miles on it! Cant wait to put some paint on it. Interior is still like new.

Yes it is all original. Not terrible the decals are fading and cracking and the paint doesn't have a whole lot of shine. I was hoping to repaint it the same color and possibly get some decals made. Why do you say I shouldn't paint it?

original paint on a 84 I dont think is all that common if it will buff out nice and wax. original paint is always better than a re-spray , any one can re-spray a car . but original paint, original interior, is what people are looking for in a classic like yours

That is a great looking truck you. Great find!!! I would see what the paint would do with a good detail on it. You might be surprised at how well it could turn out. Several trucks have been restored but you have one that is even rarer then a restored truck. Welcome to Yotatech.
