Looking for a little help in SoCal to check out a truck for me

Hi!

I am finally ready to break into the world of first gen Tacoma membership! Unfortunately, the car I want most is in LA, and I live in NJ. I am prepared to fly out next week and purchase the vehicle, but first I would like somebody with knowledge of first gen Tacoma in the SoCal area to help my check it out remotely this weekend.

Thank you!

 

Where is the truck? Dealer or private owner?

 

I did this for another user here TW . The dealership is local to me.

I would do it but I will be at a wedding.

Good luck!

 

It is in Arleta in LA. At a dealership.

 

Info on the truck like a link to the website? Also start a thread in the SoCal section here

I've already bought the Carfax and looks good. Just need a hand in a walk around and test drive. Not overly concerned about rust but I could just be naive.

good luck lol. maybe offer a case of beer or something

 

I'd buy two cases for the help haha.

 

Belt and pump

rust

upper and lower arms

Sometimes on high mileage tacos the key cylinder gets stuck, thers a mod for that

Shifter bushings on an automatic are probably worn, causes a wobbly shifter
