1995.5 Tacomas only - how many are still out there

95.5 4x4 2.7L 5-speed manual 145k mi. 06/95 Manufacture date.

 

Sold her 10 years ago and still think about her. 1995.5 Tacoma Xcab 3.4 v6 4x4 fox coilovers 33x12.50-15

 

It's officially historic! At least by AZ standards...

 

what constitutes it being a historic vehicle?

 

25 years old.

 

Dang thats awesome. Makes me wish i still had mine

 

Same

 

I was thinking the same, but as soon as I register Tacoma as a historic in Poland it brings more pain than benefits. If a vehicle is "historic" it is aromatically protected by the law as an artifact (like a museum piece). Meaning it can't be modified, it has to be repaired with original parts or, if original part is no longer available, custom made part that looks and works like the original. It can't be sold without authorities permission, has to be taken care of and never neglected - or fines will apply. Basically it applies to museum pieces that are driven occasionally and most of the time are sitting in a locked garage as a garage queen to look at. It is not good for a daily driver.

The only benefit of having historical vehicle is that it can be insured for its value. Without that no insurance company in Poland will insure my truck for comprehensive. I have to drive with liability insurance only. Even my other cars have full coverage, the insurance company refuses to give me full coverage for Tacoma. To old they say.

 

We don't have that problem, and no mileage restrictions. Really it's advantageous as I don't have to do emissions testing anymore.

 

Got my antique tag today 25 yrs old ! Crazy seeing a Tacoma as an antique .

 

I'll update if the build date is different, but I think it was either 7/95 or 8/95.

3.4L, 4x4, auto tranny, extra cab with 189k on the clock (needs verifying, too).

 

Damn good looking truck. Hit me up if ever decide to part ways with it.

 

This is an 05 95. This is not my truck, so Im not sure what was done to it, besides the obvious.
It's for sale on craigslist: https://boise.craigslist.org/cto/d/horseshoe-bend-1995-tacoma-4x4/7076694857.html

 

How much narrower is that pickup bed than the tacoma cab

 

Not a whole lot. Very close to the cab's width.

 

I hate when people put a different gen bed on a truck. I get it, they rust all to shit, but geez, find another same gen bed, or flat bed it.

 

I agree, it's almost easier to find the right bed, instead of trying modify a different gens bed.

 

i put a bed off a 91 one this one and it fit almost perfect lower body line lined up too.

 

BTW a ford splash bed will fit that truck and look perfect.

 

OMG - Ford parts in Tacoma . Just saying.
