I got rid of it because I likely won’t be working much longer due to Covid 19, and it turns out I don’t need so many well built Toyotas in the driveway. The Cordura worked well as a canvas. A large circular zipper was a bit difficult to get to lay flat in it, but other than that, it worked well...

This was the day after I bought it, back before it had a giant hole in the roof of it

Now that the drawers were done, I was able to get them installed and attach the second battery and get things wired up. I cut the factory headliner to fit in the opening, and reinstalled it, while tucking all of the “upstairs” wiring in there. 4 3/4” plywood bed panels were cut, routed with a...

Thanks so much. I’m really proud of it, and it has been a ton of fun to build.

Now I can start doing some drawers, and get a little wiring going while Pete has the canvas and is sewing it up. I cut up a pretty standard set of drawers, but built a closet over the driver rear window, and blacked the interior out with vinyl. Then I deleted the rear seat to make a longer...

At this point, I sanded, and prepped the topper for paint. Before paint, I cut a 1/4” plywood shape of some generic mountains, glued that into the top of the topper, pulled wire for the overhead light, glued an interior pvc ring in around the interior to screw to later, and put some 3/4” plywood...

I came up with this idea a few years ago, and had a different 3rd Gen at that point. So using that truck as a template, I cut and fit a top to it. The top was the raised portion of a 8' camper shell that came off of a 90's chevy pickup. I cut the top out of it, cut it lengthwise, and glassed it...

This is the point of no return. I made a cut, the width of the sunroof, and the length of the top. I stopped 3.5” before the rear door crossmember. At this point I built a frame for the roof, to reinforce it.This is the bit of the build I didn’t do a great job documenting. I cut a piece of 3/16”...

I've not written a build thread before, though I've owned many a 4Runner and Tacoma and have built them all out in various ways. This rig I picked up in October of 19' and have been building it out since. Anyone that I've talked to about it has been curious about the build process. I figured id...

I finally got some photos of the pop top interior, before the new owner drove the old rig away. I also figured I’d throw in a photo from a Tacoma flatbed that I’ve been tinkering with lately. I also made a build thread for the 4Runner with more and better photos...

Thanks guys. It’s been a ton of fun. I’ll have to take some better pics of it soon and post them up. It has removable bed panels, so you can sleep upstairs with the panels, or downstairs without and have lots of headroom. The drawer system has replaced the rear seat entirely, and there’s a flip...

I built it from scratch. I did all of the work on it with the exception of sewing the canvas.

And a shot of it closed.

I I've not really posted on here, but lurk often. I have built quite a few one off Toyota's and always tell myself I should start documenting things better and write build threads. Then, I don't do it. This is the most recent rig.

Sold.

Sorry, $7,000 obo.

1997 4Runner in Loveland, CO 80537 I've been building for most of a year. I've been setting it up for 4x4 touring and overland travel. It's been a lot of fun to build, and it's nearly done. I know that 330,000 miles seems high, but nothing but the body have that many miles. It is an ultra...

Another pic. Willing to include dog with purchase.

Thanks folks. I really had fun building it. Both using this thing, and the build have been an awesome adventure. Some more pictures, just because I'm proud of it. :)

If you’re serious about it, let’s chat. I’ll be in New Mexico next week and could bring it along.
