Double Trouble: The Fenwick's T4R Build & B.S.

Oh yes, and rims. Definitely keeping these ones.

 

Most expensive tires you've ever bought dude! Score!!!!

 

Yesss! The tires don't have much tread, but they are just above the fail mark in terms of inspection. The rims are much beautiful. They are a little dirty, but not pitted, so I will be able to clean em up all nice and fancy. I think the tires and rims are worth more than I paid for Stonewall- or either of the runners, ha ha.

 

We went over there to at least see if the manual would start, and if it did, we were gonna drive it to it's new temporary home, but it didn't want to start. So we will be towing both of them home later when Robert gets back.

 

Run em!

Any idea if the 4wd works?

 

Yup, both of them still work, I know that much. The previous owner was always going offroad, mostly mudding. 4wd is solid on both of them.

 

Don't be afraid to replace fluids then. They probably need it.

 

Oh yeah, gonna go through everything on em. Nothing will remain unchecked.

 

You know me, I want through every little thing with Stonewall. As a result, that $250 truck has been going for three years and hasn't let me down yet.

 

$250
That's awesome!
I paid $350 for my 72 Malibu in 1986.

 

Yup! I guess it's my thing, buying dead junk cars that nobody else wants, then turning around and making them 100% awesome.
Pete the '90 Mustang- The cost of spark plugs and wires
Senor Hondos the 91 Civic- $400
Stonewall- $250
Yet unnamed T4R's- $300 apiece
Yeah, I guess it's my thing.

 

Looks like we will be getting them tomorrow... Bobby (not Robert, but the guy who will be temporarily storing the runners) is at work and is unable to answer his phone to tell us where to put them. Don't just want to dump em there without putting them where he wants em. No sense in me being upset about it, because I can't do anything with them right this second anyways.

 

Guys, I'm dumb. I posted this thread in the wrong place. I failed to note that there was another place for 4runner builds. Is there any way I can get it moved to the appropriate subforum, @chris4x4, @sean266?

 

Nice score Fen... and for very little money! I'll be watching the frankenstein outcome.

 

So the previous owner sent me some pics of both trucks from when they ran and drove. Thought I'd post em in here to show you guys.

The Auto:






The Stick:







So the rims that are currently on the stick were originally from the automatic. I wonder what happened to the rims that were on the stick in these pics. I also wonder what happened to that rack on top of the Auto, because I would definitely have paid extra for it if he still had it.
The little end caps on the aftermarket bumper say Pelfreybilt, but I wasn't aware that Pelfreybilt ever made a bumper like this. Is it really one of yours, @Pelfreybilt?
Thought the pics were pretty cool, and they make me want to wrench even more!

 

Good luck......

 

Thanks!

 

Sweet, subd. Ready for the builds

 

It's all I can think about!
Blank look on my face? Yeah, I'm probably dreaming about working on these trucks.
