That's $3K more than I paid for my new '85 like yours.

Do you have the factory steel wheels?

These are not cheap anymore, and will continue to rise

Your point?

Your point?

Maybe it was just an anecdote? Like how a V8 equipped '57 Bel Air convertible was $2,611.00 brand new.... No one would expect to buy one now for that price.

Any how, it's a nice clean little truck. Hard to find those old Toyotas where there's more metal than rust on the box, haha

Beautiful history right there! Amazing to see them unmolested.

Should sell quick! GLWS

Nice truck. I had a 4Runner of that vintage that I had to get rid off to get a vehicle with 4 doors (baby seat). I knew I was going to regret not keeping it, and I was right.

The manual locking hubs in the first pic confirm it is 4x4, but your description does not so state. Might want to add that.

I do have to ask , why was the bed replaced or repaired?

This occured before I purchased the truck and there are no records on the CarFax.

That price is honestly LOW if the mileage is accurate and there isn't bondo under that bed paint.

The majority of Midwestern 2nd gen Pickup's have had their bed's replaced, either with factory or fiberglass. The beds would rot out even if the truck didn't have much rust. Fiberglass was also an inexpensive option if the bed was ever damaged.
