Saw these in Wally World the other day.

Matchbox has released an early Toyota 4Runner in its lineup. Has the meaning of “old car” changed? at Hemmings Blog – Classic and collectible cars and parts

I have 2 already, one for me and one for the grandson. Every time I go to Wally World I check out the Matchbox collection.

Hey if your going to do any mods to It let me know, I'm getting ready to bring mine back to stock and trade/sell,
6" lift, custom skids, metal tech bumper, k&n cool air filter, heavy duty lower control arms, allpro upper control arms, Yukon gears etc. Etc.

Put me in the very interested category for most of it. Shoot me some prices and details. I'm close to buying the complete BudBuilt skidplating, somebody's rock rails and an ARB bumper. What is the 6" lift and how many miles on it?
 
I had it done 8 yrs ago...its all chipping off...

I've seen both, but never done either myself.

The acrylic liners look nice at first, but let's just say I would never do it. I have heard/seen that they loosen off a little, then water inevitably gets where it shouldn't be and causes a mess...plus acrylic scratches real easy. The work is supposed to be guaranteed, but what a pain.

We had friends who lived through the spray on stuff...only to have it peel, and then they had to have it redone again, and it still didn't look great.

Maybe others have had better luck than those I know. If you are selling, then I guess it will help it look nice, but if you are not selling, and if it were me, I'd lace up the boot straps, and change the tub and tiles :beer:

I like it Ken, was this the one in NH that was on Craigs?

Yeah, it was on CL since last October on a used car lot in Epsom NH. I figured by now he'd be wanting to get rid of it. The salesman didn't even know what a diff locker was, never mind that the truck had them....easy score!!

I saw that one and almost looked at it a couple weeks ago. I saw from the pix it had the lockers and I was thinking they would be willing to deal since it has been cluttering up their yard for so long.

I've got 2 new folks interested in my FJ62, hopefully the snow will be gone after this weekend. I'd rather sell the 80 first as I still would like to put the 3FE from the 62 into my Tan 40.
 
I was more interested in the 60s than the 80s. I like them a bunch, I had a 62 lined up to buy and dude was selling it because he finally got his "dream" car which was old bronco, I was deployed and my mother was dealing for me, well she took to long, 2 weeks later his bronco blew up. So then he had to drive that while fixing bronco. Fast forward a bit and he had it for sale again but by then I had found a clean 80. Since then I think he decided to keep cruiser cause i found a bronco for sale on cl with that cruiser in background haha! Ideally I will have them all!
 
So Ian's on Spring break this week, he and a buddy have been working at a festival making contacts. Savannah Stopover | A MusicFile Production
End of the month he goes on a short tour playing in the band for this guy
Unemployed Potential
He's a Christian Pop guy, not really Ian's cup of tea, but he says it gives him
exposure and a chance to network.
Now as long as he keeps the GPA where it's supposed to be!
