This is a lot of money... but one of those was sold for 13000 Euros in here.

Definitely nice!
Looks like they hardly took it out of the garage.

Toyota components are bullet-proof. Issues often arise from poor wiring, assembly and/or maintenance. Suspect those first.
Next only to our senses, the multi-meter is the most important electrical diagnostic tool. Spend $6 at Harbor Freight or $$$ blindly replacing parts.

This looks to be in well above average condition for 1st Gens. Not a fan on the milk man white, but the interior looks great.

Nice, but I'm not a fan of the mile marker hubs. Aisin all the way.

Don't get me wrong, all of us would like to have Aisin but the SR5 model mostly come with auto locking hubs. Finding OEM Aisin ones to replace them aren't easy so I had to settle for a pair of Superwinch. Nothing wrong with them as long as you don't wheel super hard lol.

Until I've found the Aisin...

Oh...and those I believe are Warn, aren't they?

They have to only go up in value. Let’s be honest they only have so much competition and have very unique features.

First generations have topped $25,000 and Hagerty's values them as classic cars, depending on condition.

For top collectible dollar, loose the oversized wheels, (find allows or steel originals); and remove the wheel opening plastic, (light flares).

‘84-85 were the years to own. Here in AZ they are hens teeth and when they do come up for sale(which is rare) they command $12-15K. Only going one direction in value....

Open top suvs are ridiculous(ly fun) and will continue, millennials love this stuff and will drive $ up.

I have some old first gen Broncos that was dumb redneck trucks a decade ago and now they can bring six figures.

Fj are the same.

First gen 4runners will be there soon. They’re cool and most are rusted out/sbc’ed or generally wheeled to death.

Here's a few articles from Hagerty about 1st gen 4Runners:


The 1984–89 Toyota 4Runner is riding high | Hagerty Media


The rise of 1984–89 Toyota 4Runners can’t be ignored | Hagerty Media


Turbo 4Runners
The first-gen Toyota 4Runner Turbo is rare, bulletproof, and in high demand | Hagerty Media




Hagerty insures my 87 turbo at $17,500 guaranteed value, and that's mid-range. Here's their pricing guide on the turbo 4R:

2dr Utility Vehicle 4x4 4-cyl. 2366cc/135hp MFI Turbo SOHC

Talking
I believe the value of the 1st gens will only increase. The removable top and customizable features it boasts make it hold its value very well. I would love to get my hands on one but the cheapest I have seen for a very clean 1st gen here in the PNW is 6k. Can get them for cheaper as long as you don’t care about straight sheet metal
