What did you pay for your 1st gen?

I paid 23k















In 1998.

 

$400, two years ago for my base light blue '96 2WD, with 71K, some clear-coat blemishes, a dead aftermarket radio, and a gear-shift that wouldn't go into 1st & 3rd gear.
Shifter turned out to be a quick & easy fix.
My major improvements were an ARE cap and AC.

Happy Motoring, Mark

 

300$,
the 2.7 had a cracked head but luckily I found an engine for 600 with transmission. I sold the trans and got my money back.

 

I saw you post this truck a few days ago... I still can't get over how nice that paint cleaned up.

 

It was to much work haha

 

I know. I have all the stuff, clay bar, polishing compound, etc on an Amazon list, but haven't pulled the trigger because elbow grease is... hard to find sometimes lol

i had to go through 3 other first gen tacomas until I got exactly what I wanted. I got it yesterday too! I couldn't be happier though, I cannot wait to start my build. I'm pretty new to tacoma world but I have way too many things I want to do to it!
