so what kind of citation did you get?

i got cited for no plate/registration... which is lame IMO, he knew i was taking right to my house. He aknowleged the grease on my hands from having been working on in a little.

If you have a www.flickr.com account you can set it up so you can send pictures straight to them, then you can host them from the flickr account. I do it all the time! I also send them to my moblog http://phonese.cx and I can host them from there also.

Nice find though!

So are you going to build the stocker or what?

for now, crank the torsion bars, add-a-leafs or a small block(i know not the best).. weld the rear, 33's... that'll be it for anything involving wheeling..

i'm going to focus on doing body work, getting it all purtyd up for paint.. i'll get some fiberglass fenders too.. i'm going to paint it some type of orange/rusty metallic color, with black bed liner along the bottom half..

hopefully once the body is where i want it, i'll pick up a rolling chassis to a 3rd gen 4runner, or single cab taco with 3.4/auto, maybe TRD... swap the 1st gen over to the later year.. Total Chaos suspension.. :) then i'll be happy

Huh... interesting. I'd love to have another 3rd Gen 4Runner, but I wouldn't be swapping some old tech body onto it. :p

well, my thought was instead of swapping an engine and everything over to the 1st gen frame with all the headaches of new tabs, and adapters, and electrical.. and so on... i figure i'll swap the body over..

i can pick up a rolled 3rd gen with low miles for around $1,500.. so, not too bad..

:cool: Sounds like quite a project!

why don't you just find a running 3rd gen 4 runner, put a solid axle underneath it, and save yourself 10000 hours of labor and money in the long run??

my goal is to have a reliable rig that can do whatever i want it to, moreso gauged for extended trips kinda safari-esque, with a flare of desert racing in the suspension... so i can haul ass over the bumpy roads.. and that suspension will easily do what i want on the rocks too.

You know, a full Tacoma/Tundra fiberglass front clip would look pretty bitchen' on the front of your 1st/3rd Gen 4Runner abortion-mobile. Here's a Tundra clip from Fiber Werx, looks pretty decent on a older P/U.-
