2008 4runner 160k asking $1500.00

My mechanic just got one in today. It has a good frame but no wheels or tires. What do i need to look for in engine bay. According to owner Truck starts and runs fine. I have not owned a 4runner since 94 but it does look like a good deal.

 

It has a rear locker so I bought it.

 

Pics?

 

I have not seen it yet. I heard locker and went for it. It is about a 30 mile drive at my friends shop. The only catch is that it does not come with wheels or tires. Then as long a she runs and drives it is mine. I meet the owner tomorrow at 4

 

just recieved

 

Yeah that's a steal. You can drive that thing another 150k miles if you wanted.

 

I really hope it works out. I already have spare wheels and tires.

 

Don’t think they came with rear locker, Center diff lock I think. I could be wrong.

 

The 2009 Trail Edition came with a factory rear locker. Good luck finding one.

 

What is a center diff lock?

 

Does anyone know what trim package it has? I am trying to figure out what it is worth.

 

Also, the cats are gone but they will be installing new ones tomorrow. Kind of pissed that it may not have a rear locker. Still showing a value of 6-8k.

 

Never knew that and I’m a big 4Runner guy lol!

 

I have never bought a vehicle that didn’t have wheels before

 

I have not purchased a used Toyota since 1988. I am just looking for a summer project and maybe make a buck or two. No plans to lift or anything just a good winter beater. Hell I spent $900 on my Taco last month. Rack and pinion and ac/heater motor blower

 

Damn, that’s awesome! Seems like a good deal, almost too good! I would look it over very carefully.

 

best i can do is $1600 thats good deal. Id find it hard to pass on it.

 

No cats, tires, or wheels? Why it was only $1500? What's the full story?

 

I guess it was an insurance claim for theft of cats and wheels. Owner lives out of state and wants nothing to do with it.

 

Sounds like a stolen vehicle. Does it have a clean title?
