Talking Grapevine - 85runner

Had my pile for about a year now, ready to get a formidable wheel going

Got her off clist for $800 in Victoria, tx and drove it 6 hours home to grapevine. It is 22re and solid axle, which is what i was looking for, but i took the 6 hour drive not knowing it had been rolled. So that listed price of $2000 went down to 800 real quick. He had cut the roof out and stood the a-pillers up and bolted an aluminum sheet to it for a make-shift roof. then cut the window frames out.

So eventually found an donor 87 yota - the motor on clist for $350. I cut the top off and married it to my yota, cant really tell now. new doors, liner, used the tranny out of it, and now it have and extra stick also. Thats waiting to be installed, just need the adapter(anybody...?). Also looking for front suspension parts as well.



Just sold my accord, not smart. Now my wonderful pile is my dd!! Wish me luck, hope to see you on the trail.
