Thanks, I added pics.

The best thing you can do is nothing.

 

Here’s some better pics. I lucked out, got it for 10,500 with differential lock working, 125,000 miles and my mechanic said engine and transmission are just getting broke in. Not to mention frame recall was just done last year! They did it right too, no problems at all.

 

Clean truck!
I like that it's a MT too

 

MT as in manual transmission? Nah it's not, thats the 4wd, Toyota never made 1st gen dc MT, only auto. But you can swap it in

 

Sweet dual-carseat mod. Have that one myself.

Just not in my truck. Won't fit.

 

Yeah, it’s my only ride right now and one is close to not needing one. The other will be taking his back rest off his soon so just a 1 booster seat mod .. lol

 

It’s not, it’s an automatic. I wish it was a manual but they’re impossible to find Gen 1 in good condition.

 

Oops. Looked like a manual trans. Parking break should've given that away

 

This was my second Taco. It was a 2000 and was a manual. I got it at auction in late 2001 for 9750 plus 250 fee for the car dealer that took me. It had 70K miles on it. I put another 70K on it, mainly interstate miles between DC and East TN. I sold it for 11K. Made a profit. Tell me another truck you can do that with. I did keep it clean. These are pics I took as I cried as the buyer was coming to buy it. I really wish I had kept all of my toyotatrucks I’ve ever owned (3)...I want to build a fleet.

 

Mine was that clean when I got it last year. Had 54K.

 

For 140k miles, looks great!

 

Welcome back....planned on bringing ya a cake with a hacksaw blade in it...but been kinda busy.

 

Agreed, leave them as is. Gives them character and let's everyone know your truck really is THE shit.

 

Breaking parts and injuring egos. AOP at its finest.

 

Let the fun . . . I mean, intervention begin.

 

I treated it like it was my child. I lived in Arlington VA for most of its life with me so it was a road car mainly. Although I did drive it from Arlington to East TN in a blizzard in 4 high on I-81 only stopping for gas. Turned a normally 6 hour drive to a 10 hour one but it was fun. When I was home I’d do some mud slingin but nothing hardcore, it wasn’t built for it. It was a stock 2000. I’ll be beefing up my new one and crawling on some rocks
