    Yeah buddy :cool: it's gonna be good once i can get home from college this summer and start wrenching on it.

    Any suggestions on what i should do? i was thinking of getting it all looked over and seeing what needs to be replaced and go from there.

    Things and stuff and such
    Depending what shape it is in. Engine And general maintenance is pretty easy on these yotas with the right tools. They are pretty easy to build on a budget as well.

    Restored to stock with mild mods. That bodystyle is my favorite. Those trucks are like hen's teeth here in Michigan. I was at an ORP a couple months ago for an event and a guy had an '82 in beautiful shape and he said he was getting a lot of compliments on it even from J**p guys. I took as many pics of that truck as I did everything else put together!

    1991 V6. Stayed in the family for a while. One of my brothers drove it as his first car too. This pic is before he got to it and stopped taking care such good of it :( Sold it to some guy last December... was hoping to buy it back from my brother but I had no where to keep it when the time came.

    some day I am going to get another old 'yota :D Hoping to snag an un-molested 79-83 I have seen a few out there....

    I personally hate seeing 1st gens being hacked. They are few and far here in MI and I would love to have one to restore.

    That is super clean. I would keep it the way it is. Mine was already pretty mangled when I started on it.

    My first old school Toyota was a '77 Celica fastback bought in 1991. Drove it for 4 years as a daily driver before buying a '76 FJ40 for a change of pace in '95. Sold the Celica to buy cruiser parts but wish I would have kept it. The 40 is very reliable vehicle and wheels great. Still have it and will pass it down to my kids someday. Needed a truck back in '02 and bought a '99 Tacoma which has been my daily driver for nearly 12 years now. The Taco is also very capable and has given me few problems over the years. These purchases were some of the best decisions I ever made. Toyota forever! :cool:
