Awe come on... You know u wanna. Then when it's 90% finished sell it and start a new project.

It's almost like having an ex wife.

On the topic of Diesel Swaps...

wow. someone's a bit of an opportunist...5500???? is it still 2008?


I can't find the ad now, but there's a locked 80 (burgundy) that looks decent for 4300 or so listed as well. In the interior I think.

Craigslist searches work better on android devices than on the computer. annoying sometimes.

EDIT....found it. Kijiji. http://bc.kijiji.ca/c-cars-vehicles...n-1991-Toyota-Land-Cruiser-W0QQAdIdZ547670066

And never mind the glorified station wagons that weigh 8000 pounds....


Every wife would love to wake up to this in the driveway christmas morning.......right?

Well, good guy, he helped me out with a bj40 alternator once...but...

Nah. It's cool. I don't want one. If I was gonna buy a big fat glorified station wagon it would just be a beater bj60. At least one of those can get decent mileage without a $$$ engine swap. 10mpg would make me nauseous. Just couldn't do it. Not even for a couple months.

(now if you knew a guy with a half assed mediocre 60 for that price....)

wants one of the ~1998-2004 4 door tacomas with a diesel in it to replace her CRV.
I'm thinking that might be fun to put together. Tdi or merc maybe? dunno.


Still getting over the rather s***ty phase of being broke-ass student here, so nothing's going to happen quickly. I complain about the schizernugen, but I haven't put fuel in it since October. That's hard to give up.

 

[seapotato]

Ha, having said all that, this looks like something I would do....

Americans will HATE it. has less than 300 HP and probable doesn't cruise at 70mph.

[Sowikal]

I definitely want this,

Neat rig. Lots of room in that engine bay...

I would think it is in dire need of a turbo though; I can't imagine how slow it must be on the hills.

 

[themorb]

Somebody should buy this.... to take the temptation away from me.

How early is too young to buy your kid his first truck?

That's a really cool and clean little truck. Looks to be a factory north american diesel (2lt). Pretty rare.

 

[ForealBoreal]

That was my dream high school truck.
No to mention at that price it seems like a good little deal.

 

[seapotato]

Neat

Back for sale again. 4500 now.

Did anyone find out what he used for a frame?

not that I want it, just curious.

 

[hellbent40]

I inquired about it along time ago i think he said it was still on the 40 frame... U can see it ends at the leaf springs in the rear

Sweatyforehead, did you buy new tires yet? $400 for these looks like it might be a good deal.

 

[cruiserpilot]

Check the sidewalls for belt separation. I had that problem with the 4 or 5 sets I used over the years.

 

[hellbent40]

Plus buyin new rims to fit
