Early pickup/hilux and 4-runner tech and classifieds

[third coast cruisers]

Timing belt replaced, along with any and all ancillary parts removed to get here. Today was a good day for my 3.4.

Update replaced timing belt, tensioner, idler pulleys, thermostat, water pump, cam seals, radiator, rad hoses, etc... Fired it up and drove 600miles back to Chattanooga. Gotta love a yota.

I'm digging the OEM slide in the cargo area. I loaded the fridge in. Transporting venison to Todds kid to take to Asheville Friday. Got it set on 10* F

Check out this little gem.

Warn hubs, but check out the rear center caps. May not be able to see them, but they are old Toyota emblem on red background.

That's the truck of my dreams when I was 13

THose hub cabs on the rear are hard as hell to find. They have a horrible way that they attach and hardly ever stayed on. Sharp little truck.

If the first gen 4 runner (esp. the solid axle models) had cupholders from the factory, I can't think of a more perfect vehicle.

Does it have continuos power shpply?

 

[Fireman]

I've been driving this one around for the past week. It's amazing how small they are compared with all of the big full sizes trucks on the roads.

Does that orange mini happen to have AC? Is it an 83? Looks cool.

 

[Fireman]

81 with ac no power steering. Ac is all there but not charged. Compressor comes on when jumped but it has a leak somewhere.

 

[MEMCruiser]

I wish they could still make a small truck like that.

Anyone have any opinions on the best auto glass shop in the area?

 

[wngrog]

Patrick and I both used Venable Glass on Hwy 51 in Ridgeland for our 60's. No complaints.

 

[ToyoToler]

That's who I was planning on going with. Thanks

Venable did Jace's 100 last year. Highly recommended.
