Got this Truck and Runner as a package deal. Paid a little more than a buck fifty though... Neither one ran. I allocated the Runner at $500, then scalped it along with some other parts that came with the deal and I'm at net/zero, still have the tub and some sheet metal and misc part for the truck. Worked out perddy good!!

Picked mine up for $500 half primered and half rotted.
 
I got this '81 Traiblazer for $100, and traded the bald 35s for a set of 4.30 '85 4Runner axles which helped ot out alot compared to eht 3.90s. We actually buit it up pretty well with welded diffs and hand me downs for about $500 total.

my first truck: 1980 SR5 2WD: $150 without an engine.

not a truck but.....

got his 15 miles down at the end of a dirt road in SW Colorado for $400... wheeled it all over down there: Durango, Silverton, Telluride, Lake City.

drove 2 of the tires off of it during the test drive...that helped with the "negotiations":D....pretty funny, though, I didn't even notice it until I got back to their place that it was in 4 High and that one tire was about to fall of the rim and the other was so low on air the rim was on the ground!

put over $400 in gas through it in the first month I owned it. wanted one for 20 years. sold it this spring to trade down to an FJ60.

Welp....

It's maybe not the best deal in this thread....

But I just picked up an.........








































85 4Runner, EFI, SR5 etc..... :D











































For nothing...




So don't get all jealous on me!!!! :flipoff2:









Did I mention it was stolen......... and missing for 6 months in a BAD!!! neck of the woods? :D Then after it was recovered, it sat for 3-4 years under an oak tree about an hour from the nearest paved road. Or that that paved road is still an hour from the nearest gas station, or.... I told you about the 6000 ft mountain that was in the way right? Yeah, I told you that.... right??? :D

Here it is in all it's glory!!!

"The Green Bastard" We'll see how hard it is to get fired up. More pics later, I only had my cell phone with me....

No top, no roll bar, 3 seats missing, no stereo, cracked windshield, sun roof glass is gone, rear window glass is gone, along with all the tailgate guts.... one flat tire.... It was red originally... but the thieves saw fit to paint it a sweet forest green color...

Got you guys beat, I scored a 86 turbo 4runner for free. But I had to give up the turbo stuff. Had two holes in the block, one you could stick your hand in and one your closed fist. After taking the head off it looked like it was recently rebuilt and the retard that owned it drove it into the ground, literally, it had sand in the turbo, intake, radiator, oil, and anywhere else you could think of, not to mention the melted pistons on top of everything. My friend got the turbo stuff and gets the money from the trans and rear axle while I get the body to drop a mercedes turbo diesel into it. I'll get pics later.
