Street queen!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

The rear drive shaft angle looks very steep!!!! I doubt this guy wheels it. Looks more like a show truck. Something I wouldn't do but looks BA Not real practical.

It is alright, but I don't think the look suits it all that well. Of course, I wouldn't say that if it was sitting in my driveway.

Quite possibly the V8 302 under the hood maybe?

With 44's it will be a little sluggish compared to a mustang, but I bet it will run all over a stock truck with a 22RE like we have.

I'll bet it would sling some mud though... At least until it hit the first root that is and blew the entire driveline apart.

Nice truck but its a little much for my tastes. And I can't believe he want $9500 for it.

eek.

it's got a 5 speed, which, unless it's a ZF(highly doubtful) it's probably a T5 or adapted W56. it'll blow the first time you light em up.

I want Intrepid to do that to his 85...

I wonder about these crazy things on eBay. They always have these "brand new" hopped up motors with just a few hundred miles on them. Personally, if I blew all that bank for a new V8 I would put at least 5 digits on that thing before I sold it. Makes me think something went "wrong"

lol, I'm so naive. I thought 4.10 was an improper gear ratio for 44s regardless of engine output.

i think they both look ugly. i hate over done trucks. its a shame about that 85. took a very capable rig and made it a pavement pounder. and the 2nd gen needs bigger rims. looks kind of strange with the 10s. way too much tire.

I bet they wheel em' just not hard, i wheeled my 85 and it looked like this.



It doesnt look like a pavement pounder those damn southererns go through their backyard swap w/ those.lol

Personally if i built one it would be on 40mtrs w/ 60s and a 7in lift, or maybe rockwells? unimog?

I run 39.5 Boggers with a V-8, but not with stock axles or driveshaft either. And it has seen the trails. Mud too- but too hard to clean all that muddy stuff off...

Damn, did someone say Hot Wheels, I bet most of these are street queens, sadly, with the exception of 1985 4Runner's, sweet rig, glad to see someone actually uses 'em. Here in Jersey, there are so any lifted trucks, that don;t even go out in the rain.
