The toyota I have always wanted! A 1981 toyota trekker :D In very good shape. I am considering the 3.4 swap for it, I have a 96 4 runner with a very good working/running drivetrain in it. In the next week or so I will be putting it in the garage and stripping it down to the frame and rebuilding it from the ground up.:greg: I have always wanted one so I figure I will try to have it done by EJS. More pics to come..

That's a killer deal.. I've always thought those were such awesome rigs.. The pre-4runner truck.

How does the frame look? I can't believe how clean the body is.

$1100 for everything on the trailer INCLUDING the blue mini-truck??!

Yep! The trekker has a bad motor,(or at least its missing major parts) the blue one has a good motor. The trekker is in really good shape, the only thing I see that I dont like is the floor is rusted pretty bad, But I think I'm just going to put the cab off the blue one on the trekker, then I can have the factory sun roof. The frame is in great shape as well as all the fiberglass. it has all the hard to find parts still like the back seat, rear window etc. The odometer only reads 034,000 miles...still trying to figure out if its right or not. All in all a pretty good deal for someone that is willing to build it.

I must have viewed that add at least a dozen times :D Good deal for sure glad to see someone bought it that can appreciate what it is.

Can't wait to see the build--please use plenty of body armor ;)

HAHA, I was wondering how many people from here considered it. I have been waiting for someone to call me a bastard for buying it before them :rofl:

Body armor...oh yes, I have a hydro tubing bender so it will get some nice custom protection...i'm sure Todd at tkcustoms will once again be doing some custom paint for me :D

Glad to see that you bought it. I had thought about it but could not swing it as my spending account was depleted. I can't wait to see the build on this one!
