My 1983 4x4

Bought it new in 1983, all stock except tires, have the mud flaps they kept getting torn off in the mud. New to this just wanted to share pictures of my truck. Has 113k original miles, bed was replaced by dealer in 1986 under warranty due to rust, they did a poor job painting.

83

Have been reading thru the forums for a year, just took the time to figure out how to post. Like my truck, people been trying to buy it from me for years. Cant get rid of it, to much sentimental value. Add one more picture from the camp.
Thanks for the comments, happy that I can share it with other Yota truck enthusiast
Its been sitting up for two years, going to pull it out in the spring and put it back on the raod.

My 82' with only 111,000 miles. Of the 20ish vehicles i've had, this is by far my favorite! Gotta love the 7' bed!

They are really bad a_ _ in the mud, left many trucks behind stuck.... 4 wheel low it would go thru some stuff. Not very good on the highway.
