1st Gen T4R Picture Gallery

On my lunch break I had my wife drive forward in 4wheel drive and the transfer case definitely works. I guess it's time to purchase so new hubs.
 
My new '87 4Runner, shipped from its previous owner in Nevada, getting acquainted with Michigan weather.

This sure makes me miss my 1st gen. If anyone sees it on SW Washington let me know.

Put the hardtop on. The rolled on Rustoleum flat white was so dirty it looked brown, but I used three Mr. Clean dry erasers on it with soap and water and it came as clean as the day I painted it. It had a few chips by the window seals, which I touched up with a sponge brush. It sat outside in the dirt for nearly a year and it still looks good now so I guess rolling on canned rustoleum was worth the money!

On another note I found my old beat up Thule roof bars. I wrapped them in some pipe insulation and used a few zip ties to freshen the look of them as they are more bare metal than paint these days. At least this way I won't have to use ANOTHER Mr. Clean Eraser when I throw an Xmas tree on the roof!

Whatever the person is willing to pay I guess. But I challenge anyone to find a first gen in this condition, anywhere..... definitely a collectors vehicle. It would be a shame to chop it up and put an exo on it....
 
do you have a link to the sale add or do you know them personally?

whats a nice old runner worth?

I've seen clean 1st Gens go recently for anywhere from 5k to 14k. and they are getting much harder to find in good shape.

Hey guys! I'm a new member here, but I've been lurking as a guest for years. I just purchased my third Toyota and my second, 1st gen 4Runner. This little gem has spent most of its life in Arizona and my plans are to keep it (mostly) stock. It looks great and runs smooth - I haven't stopped smiling since it got here. :D

They look so good with stock suspension, stock tires and everything accounted for.

Thanks! I am definitely a fan of the stock look. I want to do a few, small upgrades in order to improve comfort/drivability, but that's it.

The interior is 99% percent intact and I plan to keep it that way (right down to the stock radio). I would like to upgrade to an SR5 gauge cluster though.
