Wassup from Honolulu, Hawaii, recently fortunate to pick up a 74 short bed, witha 18rc, excited to do it up a little and bring this classic back to life !
Wassup Ed, thanks for the welcome, I put some pics in my membership Gallery DSC01238 - Toyota Minis Gallery I dont know how to share them, any way theres about 5 of them.. nice to meet you
Wassup Rosamond... thanks for the welcome... i got some pics my membership Gallery... DSC01238 - Toyota Minis Gallery how do i get it to show to everybody ?
Wassup Dave.. thanks for the Welcome.. I got some pics at my membership Gallery DSC01238 - Toyota Minis Gallery I dont know how to show.. do i use the build thread ?
Wassup Hawaiian ! Craigslist.... The guy was kinda young... supposedly his uncle owned it... sat in a garage in Kahala somewhere i think.. 60K original
Dude...... Oh My Freekin God I don't think I've ever seen a Factory Truck look so clean... has it been re painted?
thanks for the welcome Sean, 1st... kill the surface rust, with a fresh coat.. keep it OEM as possible, maby drop a little.. keep it old skool as possible
re-painted once, but very close to the factory green/turquiose... I jumped on it because... bed is immaculate, straight, no body work, doors cherry !!, all gutters still there... only get some holes on fenders but really minor.... (probably plan to repaint with stock color.. + some pearl) my dash got no cracks , still soft !!!... noteable replacements: middle dash (dam donkeys butchered installing a brand new AM radio), passenger side vent, stock antenna , blower control unit... (got parts.. ha ha.. i bet a popular question) for us guys in Hawaii hard to score with no rust holes or not to sun burnt... 60k original... btw love your paint sceme on your 74
Was wondering if someone was going to pick that truck up. seen um on CL. Good score! Welcome to the site although I'm pretty new too! What part oahu you from? Used to be in PC but moved back to hilo in 05. GL mike
mine is a 76 but thanks I can't wait to get it done so I can put real paint on it and get her out of rattle can...
Dang nice find. Only seen 1 other one on raigslist out in Waianae. Im gonna pick one up one day. Let me know if you come across any other ones.
