$7500 Cash - Firm. Serious inquiries only, please.

Literally runs like new.... like any legendary Gen 3 should. All original, and in great shape. 4x4 loaded Limited. There are some minor scratches/tiny dents to be touched up (have original touch-up paint), but as you can see from pics it is in terrific condition overall & very clean. The anthracite paint is one of the rarest colors, and this one doesn't suffer from paint failure like some (probably because it has been garage-kept for 20 years). There is no body rust, other than the tow bar (as usual) - which I touch up.

Mechanicals are all perfect and interior is immaculate. Non-smoking vehicle. Exception is some wear on the driver's seat leather and a ~ 3-4 inch sideways tear in the leather on the side of the driver's seat right above the power controls. Other than that, almost perfect. Have 2 keys but no FOB (was lost). Tried to get 3rd party FOB to work but couldn't get the ECU to operate with it - so I just left it alone.

Was driven (and seriously babied) by a fire chief in Schaumburg IL for 16 years before I bought it for my kid to drive. Still has a radio mount in the front passenger area carpet. Over the past several years I've put some new shocks, tires, new alternator, new battery and muffler on it, and a front brake job. Plus change the oil.

This is a perfect vehicle for someone who wants to get their hands on a 3rd Gen 4Runner in terrific overall shape and then spend their valuble $ on upgrades instead of superficial stuff. This gem made it to the top of the challenge hill at Silver Lake (MI) as a stock 19-year old,and can last another 19. Being stock and this age, it could use some serious suspension upgrades though - as most here would expect.

I'll post pics of the interior soon - need to clean it up & vac first. Also note the engine doesn't look as clean as it did in that pic. I can't steam-clean it like it was when I bought it.

Good luck with the sale. its beautiful.

A couple more pictures of the undercarriage and interior I'm sure would be helpful for potential buyers.

Not in the market but somedays I wish I hadn't built mine and just left it stock like this.

I don't mean to be rude, but $7,500 for a 20 year old truck with 165,000 miles that spent it's entire life in the midwest seems a bit steep. Unless it's pretty spotless underneath.

awesome looking 4runner! wish mine was in this good of shape, but Ill keep it going as long as i can.

btw, is that silver lake sand dunes? I drove there from MA in my lifted Ranger back in 2010

I get it, but again I did say it was in terrific shape. Sure, there is superficial rust on the skid plates and such underneath - but that is a given for a vehicle that age, midwest or not. The thing has been garage kept for 20 years, and averaged 8K/year miles. It's going to need some work over the next year or two - standard stuff like steering, bushings, and and could use some suspension work/improvements. But if that stuff were done already, I'd say it was in absolutely perfect shape, and asked $9000!

Anyway... I listed on Autotrader last week & sold it in 4 days, for $7000 cash.

I'm going to miss it... probably my last Gen 3 (this was the 3rd). But I just don't have any need or capacity for 2 trucks, and I just bought this baby:

Yeah - that was Silver Lake Dunes in MI. Great place - we had a riot. One of the few times I took the thing off-road. It did great, but couldn't handle the bumpy terrain. It's a road and snow vehicle, unless it gets some work.

Well, I guess that goes to show what I know lol. Congrats on the sale!
