[SOLD] 99 Tacoma 4x4 v6

SOLD

Super clean and super rare Tacoma (4wd, auto, v6, rear locker.) I have babied the crap out of this car but now need to upgrade to a more comfortable family car and hope it can go to a TW enthusiast. I have done a very long list of maintenance and upgrade items. I have no doubt this truck has at least 150k left in her. Idles like it’s off. Super rare “sport interior” with pop top sunroof. I’ve never even seen one like this before. 4WD with the factory rear e-locker. I believe I’m the second owner. Purchased from a guy in Santa Barbara who used it to tow his boat. California car with ZERO RUST. Zero faded paint. Paint has been corrected and ceramic coated with Gyeon products routinely. Also have an unpainted prepped camper shell I can include if wanted.

193k miles

Head gasket..?

 

$?

 

still available?

 

Guess I copy/pasted my ad too quickly from my FB one and missed some important info.

What about it? Has it been replaced? Never needed to. Truck runs strong.

$10,500

 

Love the fabric on the seats and the door panels. Gives it that nice JDM feel. GLWS!

 

3VZE’s were recalled for head gaskets

 

Oh this is a 5vz

 

Thanks! Me too. I’ve never seen one like this before. Makes it look more vintage and classic IMO.

 

SOLD

 

3vze 3.0 v6 was never put in the Tacoma, only the pickups and 4runners from 1988 -1995.

1st gen Tacomas got either the 2.7l 4 banger or the 3.4l (5vze) v6

The 3.0 3vze was a turd though for sure

 

right, my bad. the 5 series motors just blew, and then they put the new gaskets in wrong…
