got my runner for 900 bucks and drove it home, found out all it needed was the sparkplugs to be screwed in all the way and it ran great.
Nice truck man, great deal!!!

^lol^ Yeah, not quite that lucky here...It turns out that I do need a rear bumper for a sticker(law changed a couple years ago)...so anyone got one they wanna sell? I need the bumper and brackets...for some stupid reason the guy didnt leave the brackets with the truck! But other than that,,,the cel code 27 is the post cat o2 sensor...my bud said not to worry...he will not fail me for that...but it has to have a bumper....any thoughts...I have been looking online, and it looks like Im gonna end up spending close to $400 for the bumper, bumper ends, and all brackets. Thinking maybe I'll make one.

Yeah, I looked at those, and may end up buying one, however, I know how to weld, my father in law has a welder, and I have tons of spare angle iron and tube steel kickin around, so I may just go through the trouble of fabbing one, Although it will prob end up looking like a turd, and I'll end up buying one anyway. lol

This deal just gets better and better, while cleaning this puppy out I have found:
Owners manual, with original purchaser info(name, Phone number....)
12 disc pioneer cd changer
400 watt pioneer amp
all speakers have been swapped to jbl, with 2 bose subs
original jack and toolkit, with facory shovel.
And the problems I have found are:
No rear bumper
Rear speakers were disconnected
needs post cat o2 sensor
and tune up...plugs, wires, cap, rotor
unreal, I paid $7500 for my 93 6 years ago, with just under 100k, and it didnt come with anything, and didnt ride as nice as this 94 does with 200k.
I am stoked...going to fix up the 93 and let the g/f drive it, this 94... gettin lifted, and fully restored!!

Practice is always good when it comes to welding.

Yeah...exactly. I have even thought about fabbing some brackets to use a chevy s-10 bumper, or maybe even a ford exploder bumper(except that fords rust worse than any other vehicles I've seen up here).

Just picked up this runner on c/l for $600!!!! It has 200k on the clock, and needs a bumper (which I dont think state law requires in maine), and a an exhaust gasket after the cat....thats it...Drove it over 50 mi to get it home, and had no probs whatsoever... what a score!!
