The PO had just put in a new clutch, plus it had recent brakes. Searching the receipts, I found it had a new headgasket, radiator, timing chain, etc. about 35K miles ago, by the original owner. It has about 178K on it, I'm guessing because the odometer went out a few months ago. It has almost zero rust and runs great. I've really appreciated having a pickup for my day job and construction/ handy man projects.
That is the twin to the first new truck I had ever purchased. 1992 I was on the line for Thomason Toyota, I think I paid the weekend ad price of $11,995.00 Had side vent windows, 4cyl, 5 speed, SRW, cass and a/c. Man I loved that truck!
