I could never sell or trade it, my dad bought it new it's one of those sentimental things.. I need to put more pictures up I built a back bumper for it a couple weeks ago and and am working on a design for a front bumper that I plan on building for a winter project, I'm waiting for my Bikini top from wabfab also.. thanks it is a very clean 4runner it sat for 12 years after my dad passed away before I could get my step mother to sell it to me..

Thanks I'll check it out... No I just pulled the motor because it had a striped spark plug, it had 160,000 miles on it, I took it to a jis engines in fort Worth and they rebuilt it, I had to buy a new head the original had a crack, I sent the injectors off and had them rebuilt and bought a new clutch, pulled the gas tank and cleaned the crap out of it, put it all back together and cranked up and runs great, even the original ac works still....

NICE PU, Richard! 
Don't sweat the 'missing' it part.. You'll soon have EXACTLY what you've wanted for a long time... And in a Removable top/Walk through/Campable rig, no less! But yes, NICE!

Wow, Greg! Sorry to hear that you had to go through that with the Stepmom.... AFTER losing your Father, no less! (sorry for your loss, sir!) .........
Yep, you've got a very beautiful rig there, Greg.... I can TOTALLY see why you'd never part with it!

Thanks Chef, And yea you're right. I'll have something way better after im done with my 4runner. Something that can withstand more rigorous off roading and something with a bigger more powerful motor and better parts.
Here is some old Videos of when i went to Palm Springs Desert to off road. not too sure what part. its been so many years. These hills dont look like it but they were really steep.
You can kinda tell how steep this one was toward the end of the video. Check out how high that hill was. and on the other side it was a very very steep drop. Still part of the trail just super steep. i was too scared to go on from that point. so i didnt do it lol.
And here is me out in Big Bear having fun in a big open dirt/mud/snow field. doing donuts n stuff. I broke my signal light on this trip from all the jumping around in the truck i accidentally smacked the signal lever with my hand. Imangin driving back home from big bear all the way to Los angeles having to hold that signal lever. hahaha

Thanks chef. I had loads if fun with that truck both on the road and off road. I bet you my 4runner would have been able to make it up that steep hill. Lol I'm sure those chunky thornbirds made it much easier to climb though. And it also had manual locking hubs not automatic.
YotaCrawler99 do you have any pictures of the truck with all your lights on. Looks awesome.

I seen this sweet looking FJ40 on the freeway today. It was so beautiful. Looked like 33 or 35" tires. It was brown, white, and some Chrome. It was restored really really nice! It looked like it might have been getting hauled to a car show or something.
