Howdy guys. Been a toyota nut for many years (mainly Cressidas and Supras). Came across the truck the other day and loved the history and condition.

Was a New Mexico truck, back in 1993 it was driven to upstate NY and sat in a barn until this summer, when it was started up and pulled out to the lawn to be put for sale.

My buddy saw it and told me about it, I checked it out and picked it up.

Lots of plans for it, but first, get it running (needs a rear pump, starts up and runs great out of a gas can), powercoat the steelies and toss on some new tires.

Glad to have found this place. Nice to still see a strong online community.

Cheers!

 

Anyone have a recommendation for the electric fuel pump?

 

Hey welcome let us see some pictures don't be shy

 

I need to get it home. Currently it is still at the barn. We are in the middle of a new home purchase, so I was holding off bringing it home until the dust settles.

I am a photographer, so expect some photos soon enough. I just wanted to get it running again and to a nice location first.

Anyone have a recommendation of which electric pump I should pick up?

TIA!

 

Ok I'll be waiting lol

 

Fuel Pump

Im running a stock electric fuel pump off of the a nissan 720. These pumps are strong and able to support dual sidedraft carburetors

 

Truck will be delivered on Thursday.
