even abuse. The legendary setup is one that will always be popular

Offered here is a total frame off, nut and bolt restoration with
zero concern about cost. The restorer was told by the owner "Spare
no expense" when completing this vehicle. It was done with an open
checkbook and during the 14 month restoration period significant
time and effort when into recreating the stock setup with some nice
upgrades. Originally sold new in California and then most of the
past 20 years been in Nevada. Restoration was done by a Toyota
"guru" in southern California and custom engine work was performed
that included jetted Weber carb and performance pistons and head
work. All new A/C components were sourced and function
properly.
Inside and out you could just about eat off and present this car to
any car show for anticipation of bringing home the trophy in any
large scale atmosphere. Complete body off paint job that was done
to a very high standard and the period correct hockey stripes are
aligned and applied to perfection. Inside the cab is all new with
carpet, seats, door cards, dash pad, and even the cigarette lighter
works. Few functions were inop (horn and radio). Sliding rear
window is in excellent shape and even the dome light functions
properly.
Exterior is like a work of art with the 15in gold wheels and new BF
Goodrich tires that have great eyeball and really set this apart.
Spray in bedliner also was done very well and proper factory jack
and tools located behind the seat. There is so much to appreciate
in this special truck that only the Toyota gear head will notice
the extent of work put into this machine.
