Back in the world of Toyotas

Well after selling my first truck 84 toyota, I've been kicking myself ever since, so I picked up another one(only took 5 years ).

My rig now is again an 84 toyota, single cab long box, pretty much overhauled on the mechanics end of it but the body is starting to show the rust.

Mods to come are Lift(2 or 3") 33" rubber, new gearing(4:56), rear lockers, and of course a nice bumper to help me get pulled out of holes.

Gotta love those old yota trucks. I'm obsessed with 'em personally.

Nice truck and if it's just starting to show rust then that's pretty good since the beds of '80s PUs seem to rust at the sight of water.

Its got a bit of cancer in they box, and of course along the seams. The frame is solid though. I'll be burning some wire next spring fixing up the box.

Just dropped in a new Drag link yesterday definatly drives alot better now.

91_4x4, I am obsessed with these things as well, Basically my dream truck, may not have much power, but it'll go anywhere I want it to. I'll try to find some pics of my old one when I was wheeling.
