That looks quite nice. If I didn't have the Mustang, I'd probably be sneaking a peek at this.

That is very clean and very cool. My gut feeling is that (almost) seven grand is a lot of money for a 43 year old Toyota. But realistically I know that there just aren't many out there anymore in that condition.

Fairly clean, vintage Toyota truck? Why isn't it massively overpriced? I'm suspicious...

$7k for a 2wd toyota pickup is pretty massively overpriced IMO. I think that's a $4k truck, tops.

@benjrblant hmm, just did a BAT search, it does seam no one wants the 2WD ones. Only the 4$4s are worth 5-digits. Last 2WD sold on BAT went for about the asking on this one

Paint and body are truly gorgeous, but interior needs some sprucing. Good luck finding a replacement for the cracked dash. I'd still fork over a few grand for it, because quad headlights

@benjrblant Methought, That ought to be around eight grand. Me was not far off.

@benjrblant

Manwich would want this, but not for the asking price. Manwich could see himself paying up to US$3000 for this and not more.

Perfect example of how being rare doesn't necessarily mean it's valuable.

Manwich thinks this is massively overpriced as Manwich would only pay US$3000 for this.

@benjrblant That color is fantastic!!!

[Tripper]

@dr-zoidberg such a pretty color

[DipodomysDeserti]

@jawzx2 It's a grand more than I paid for my Tundra, and I got a V8 and 4wd for my monies.

[ST80MND]

@benjrblant The appliances when I was a wee one were that same colour!

[farscythe]

@dr-zoidberg eh just have one shipped over from greece....little old trucks everywhere over there
(course...they did tend to be running around in conditions that could charitably be described as dilligaf)
