It's time to sell my baby. I lover her, but I recently got divorced and need to pay some bills.
It's a 1974. The previous owner said he got it from his brother who bought it new in '74. He also said that it has been in CA it's whole life (and it had smog equipment to prove it). It shows 12,790 on the odometer but it has almost certainly turned over. It has the original engine which was rebuilt by the previous owner about 6500 miles ago.
It runs good, always starts. It comes with a factory PTO winch. The carburetor was rebuilt by Mark from Marks Offroad about a year ago. It also has 4 Super Swamper LTB tires with +95% tread remaining.
Old Man Emu Dakar suspension package with greaseable anti-inversion shackles.
New distributor with Pertronix II electronic ignition and Flamethrower coil. New cap and rotor as well.
Conn Ferr roof rack.
New brake cylinders.
New Sony radio and Bose speakers.
New class II receiver and drop hitch.
Original Toyota factory tool bag and jack.
New spark plugs and wires.
New tie rods.
New fuel pump.
New rag joint.
New gaskets on oil pan and valve cover.
New gear reduction starter.
Center arm was rebuilt about a year ago.
I just changed all fluids (engine, tranny, x-fer, pto, diffs, winch, etc). Just did valve adjustment. Cylinders are all around 135 plus or minus a few psi.
Body is clean of rust everywhere but two small paint bubble spots on the rear quarter panels right above the bumper. It has a small scratch in the paint on the drivers side from the previous owner. It's smog exempt in all states so I removed some of the smog components for more power but I still have them.
The alignment was just done by Tyreman in Burbank.
Paint was done by previous owner who owned a body shop. Other than the suspension and ignition it remains basically original as far as I can tell. The seats are in good condition except for one small tear on the drivers seat out of view. Heater, air (no a/c), gauges, wipers, etc. all work.
$12,000.

Looks real nice, I've seen worse go for more, then again economy not too good right now.
 
Nice, clean original truck. What a shame to have to sell that.

Your rear anti-inversion shackles are backwards.

Good luck with your sale.

That is a nice 74. I think you have it priced to sell in a hurry..imo... Hard top looks like it's in good condition too.
