85 4runner for sale

[EasternEdge]

Bought this 4runner off ebay. I was planning on using it, but plans have changed to do the lack of space to store this truck, so I am keeping my other project instead. I won this off ebay about a week or so ago and have not picked it up yet, but plan to by the end of the week if no one does and putting it at a friends house if I must. This is what was listed in the auction,

Up for sale is a 1985 4runner that I bought a month ago on Ebay. Truck was running really well until the water pump went out one day and I tried to get it home. The engine does not want to fire any more. The crankshaft is still turning so, I don't believe the pistons are frozen. I removed the valve cover yesterday to see if I could diagnose if it was the cylinder head. The valves and the timing chain look like they were installed last week at the factory. I have no idea what the problem is

Forgot to mention, it's all power, 22re, 192k and all the rust is surface scale rust, not rot as this was a concern I brouhg tup before I bought it and the seller told me that he tested the frame with a hammer all over.

Looking for $800 obo. A friend sent me to this site so I figured I would try here also, so please feel free to contact me.

So, if you sell it, this Runner is going to have 4 owners in less than 3 months, approximately? That seems a little fishy to me. It was already on Ebay twice, I was watching it both times. What else is wrong with it?
