Not Your Typical Fixer Upper

This one has an unusual problem. Could be a good project, I guess.

2000 Toyota 4Runner

well..... thats CO for you....

I guess if you have a hook up for a shop it might be a good deal, that or the willingness to spend a lot of time in junk yards....
when electrical is involved who knows what it really needs!

cheers

I work in Boulder and am driving to the Utah-Idaho border day after tomorrow. If only I had a bigger truck I could tow it to you...sorry :crybaby:

 

[MtnChick]

Thanks for the offer! Not sure I would want to take that on anyway, but if the asking price was a little lower I'd be tempted. Pretty low miles, and probably has lots of good parts.

We get bears in the yard here. I'll have to remember to keep the doors closed. I can see it now- sorry honey, a bear ate your Runner:shocked:

"Fair market value", he says.

Asking waaaay too much for a project truck, I says.

 

[MtnChick]

I agree. It's been on the market for 3 days too- a long time for a low miles CO Runner, so definitely high. Half that price would be more like it.

I'm with this guy. I paid that much for a pretty good shape 5-speed 4x4 e-locked SR5 WITH AN INTERIOR. They're dreaming on the price.

Cool story though. My friend had a bear break into his mom's car at his cabin, so last time I went up there I brought an air-horn to scare them off since I was planning on sleeping in the runner.

Bear spray works too, but don't let any of it get inside the car!

If you could get this thing cheap I'd take the back seats out, do a bare minimum of fixes, and then use it as a beater for hauling a firewood, hunting, etc.
