Midwest 3rd Gen BS Thread - WI, MI, IA, MN, IL, IN

best part of all i paid $1500 for it. And I am a Jeeper at heart as you can see in the front end shot(with the dogs), my Cherokee is sitting next to the 4runner. The Body shop here in town will be putting the handle and latch in since i already paid them to diag it. its going towards the labor of replacement.

Yeah I have an 87 wrangler and my dad has an 82 Cj 7 so a lot of stuff transfers over. Once I finish my 98 4Runner later this summer I think I'm gonna build a Cherokee and resell it just cuz I haven't done one yet and they seem pretty popular.

yea this cherokee is my 9th jeep. i still own 2 47's one a jeep and the other a jeep pickup. The 4runner is completely new to me as are Toyota's. I love the way the 4runner rides compared to my jeep. night and day difference.

You have a 47 willys pickup?!? Man I'm jealous I've been looking for a decent one for 5 years. Looked at one a couple years ago it was a 56 with the hurricane 6 cyl. I just didn't think it was worth what the guy was asking. My buddy has a 48 flat fender and we did a lot of work to it this past winter, that sucker can go anywhere now.
 
yes i do, it has been sitting in our farm field for 50yrs lol. its in rough shape. but it's complete. i have a plan for it i just need to find an extended cab s10 frame.
 
So I was leaving don miller Subaru in Madison tonight and saw this 3rd gen leaving the yota dealer. Who is it? They have to be on here lol. Had a shrockworks front bumper and some wheel I forget the name of right now lol.

I saw this modified 3rd gen at Jean Klock Beach in St. Joseph, MI today. Blew my mind to see another modded 4Runner in my area. Are you on here?

Chicago West Suburbs here! Long, long, longtime fan of 3GT4R but never had one until a month ago. I have my eyes out for modded 3rd gens all the time but can't say that I've seen one in my area recently. Not much off-roading to do in these parts. But I'm still building (slowly) and very much intend to head to Moab when my sons are older...

Very nice looking 4runner in the City of Lights...you are correct not much wheeling in the area..just the cliffs and badlands...I sometimes work in Aurora maybe I will see you around...peace and love
 
I saw that this morning. And I really want it cuz it matches my sport! It's too bad that my dad and I are looking for a TJ right now to build. You should get that one.
 
Ahh the joys and pains of being single for me:moping::violin: I have all these things, but no one to say to me 'Why do you have more than one vehicle when you can only drive one at a time?'

Oh no! Did she say it's me or the 4Runner? If I had a girlfriend she'd say something along the lines cuz sometimes I spend more time in the garage than I do in my house. It's pretty funny my family was together over the 4th of July and my 2 aunts, my uncle, my grandma, and my cousin each drove up separate and my dad and I drove up together and we still had more vehicles than they did.
