Looking at 04 Tacoma 4cyl 4x4 - $6500

I'm a newbie here. Friend of mine is a huge Toyota truck guy and has traveled all over the US for them. He buys and sells them privately. He's a body guy also. I'm looking at an manual 04 Toyota 4cly regular cab that he has. It's a 4x4 and has new frame and the body has been completely redone and painted. It has 173k. He wants $6500. It has a new clutch. There are no service records and I believe the drivetrain is all original. What do you guys think. The vin #5TEPM62N94Z414754

 

It depends on the going rate of your area. Also plug that vin in Toyotas website and see what you can find out.

 

The only notice was "Safety Recall C0V Remedy - Certain 2001 - 2004 MY Tacoma Originally Sold In and/or Currently Registered in the Cold Climate States - Excessive Corrosion of the Spare Tire Carrier Lift Plate"

Just don't know if it's worth the price or if I could get one better for a little more

 

It has not been stolen or totaled at least!

 

Just takes a few minutes time.and they might put in a new tire carrier.for free

 

What I meant was the actual truck...my bad

 

Oh, yea. I've seen 4cyl. 4x4 a.c. cabs with asking prices of 10,000 with over 200k miles. Did have a paint match shell with racks. But that was at a toyota dealer.
