Year
1994
Vehicle Model
  1. 80 Series
Mileage
235000
Asking price is $7500 and I’m not going lower.

The time has come to sell my 80. I’ve had it for almost 7 years and about 30,000 miles. I still drive it a few times a week, but I don't commute for work and I have three other built Toyotas. Unfortunately the 80 is the least fun of them to drive. I don't wheel with my family and all my friends have crawlers and mountain bikes. Both are expensive so I've got to trim the fat!

Looking for **EDIT $7500** Not really looking for trades, but you never know. If you’ve got a built first gen 4runner or a pickup I could be convinced.

I'll start with a couple pictures and a link to the build. It covers most of what's been done. There is zero rust other than a couple places where paint came off due to dents.

Good Stuff:
-It's got 235k miles.
-Locked front and rear and has the CDL switch.
- longfields
- AC works and the dryer has been relocated to the battery box.
- Has apple car play.
- New 5.29s with factory Elocker diffs.
- 37s have about 3/4 tread. Full size spare, but you will need a wheel.
- Exhaust is newish with a magnaflow downpipe.
- Cloth interior.
- no roof rack
- DC front shaft
- Dobinson 4" front flexy springs
- Redline brackets to push fron axles forward
- New dobinosnn shocks front and rear
- Ironman 2.5" heavy coils in back.
- Storage platform in back
- front and rear high clearance bumpers
- white knuckle sliders
- other...?


Issues that I remember:
- Sunroof works but is siliconed closed because Ih8sunroofs and it leaked.
- passenger window doesnt work from PS switch but sometimes does from DS. It worked fine until i pulled the door panel and slammed the switch in the door.
- exhaust rattles ever so slightly on the slider skid plate.
- weird water drip from DS grab handle in hard rain.
- Dents

That’s all I’ve got for now. I’m headed out of town for work, but I’ll post undercarriage when I get back. It’s fluid filmed, but I’ve never painted anything. What you see is what you get.

Only leak is a slight weep from the front oil pump/timing cover area. It’s Been that way for 6 years. Doesn’t even leave a drip on the concrete.
 
Solid truck for the money! Shame I never got to wheel with it. GLWS.

Well it might not sell. The market for ugly 80s is weird. I’m not dying to get rid of it so I imagine it might be a slow mover. Heck, maybe I’ll end up keeping it and you’ll have your chance, yet!
 
If you were close to Cali, I would be all over this.
