 You are bidding on one of the finest, cleanest 1st generation 4runners around. I am the third owner and have had this vehicle for 7 years. It was an Arizona car for the 1st and 2nd owner and now resides in Idaho. It has never seen snow or salt, hence the original paint and body condition. There is NO body rust on this vehicle. The previous owner has installed a 3" Rancho Suspension Lift kit with matching shocks which works well with the 31x10.5BFGoodrich t/a radials. The tires look new. The sound system in the vehicle absolutely rocks! Don't know the exact details. But it has a Alpine head unit CD player with a Pioneer 800 watt amplifier in cargo area and a large JBL three speaker subwoofer in the cargo area. It also has custom door mounted speakers.  It does have an I Pod hook up to the head unit. Head liner is in good shape. Seats are all in good shape with the drivers side showing wear from getting in and out. There are no tears or rips in seats. The door panels have the normal wear on top where your arm rests with window open. There are two small holes in the door release plastic. Dashboard is perfect as well as all instruments and displays. Carpet is Very clean.  The AC does NOT blow cold but I suspect all it needs is to be recharged. We do not need AC here so never bothered to check into it. It did work very well when I bought the car in Phoenix and drove it home 7 years ago. The battery was installed last month. The mileage is original I bought the vehicle with 126k and have only put 8k since.

It is fitted with a receiver hitch with a four way flat plug. I have pulled my 17ft drift boat with out any problem. I have put new Warn manual locking hubs on in the last thousand miles. I have replaced the timing belt, serpentine belt, water pump, and the idler pulley. If there was anything mechanically that needed attention, it was taken care of.

There are round Nerf bar running boards. They do have some road rash and surface rust from the gravel roads around here unfortunately. It also has a tubular grill guard with fog lights that are functional. Every thing on the vehicle works with exception of the AC.

I have tried to show all the imperfections in the pictures. The body is in great shape but does show some wear commensurate of a 25 year old vehicle with original paint.  Starting at the tail gate, there is a quarter sized area that has been touched up with paint that does not match and the tail lite lens is scratched next to the touch up. There is a Rhino coat application to the lip of the tailgate. The clear coat was pealing and I elected to use the Rhino coat instead of repainting the whole tail gate. It looks good with other black trim on the back of the vehicle. The rear window has some wear marks from sliding up and down. The decals down the sides of the truck are faded and almost not visible. there are a couple dings on each side but no major dents.There is a scratch on the rear passenger quarter panel that was touched up with paint that did not match well.  The hood has some road rash on the nose and the decals are also faded to being only slightly visible.  The roof is in good shape but does have three dimples on the radius from the windshield to the roof.  There is a small crease down passenger side of hood, can only see it in right light. Typical of the 4runners of this era the window seals around rear sliders don't stay seated in corner but do not leak. The antenna is power but the mast is damaged and does not go up or down. It gets reception fine so I have never fixed it. The steering wheel is sun faded from the early years in AZ. The rims are Toyota OEM SR5 mags. They do have some discoloration. The muffler does have a whole in it but not worth fixing IMO. I believe that sums up the body. I tried to be as specific as possible.

Reason for selling is I don't drive it much and I hate to see it sitting around and I have too many vehicles.

This would be a great 1st vehicle for a teenager or a great platform to restore to show room new for the avid 4runner guru. Would be a great daily driver also.  I would not hesitate to drive this vehicle anywhere.

I have been watching Ebay for years and not seen many that would compare. I will be happy to answer any questions about the vehicle. It is located in Victor, ID. Buyer is responsible for shipping and or pick up. If you choose to fly in, I would be willing to pick up at Jackson hole airport or Idaho Falls airport. PLEASE  make sure you have funds available before bidding.

This first-gen Toyota Celica is one mean mother

Tue, 09 Jul 2013

Brian Karasawa's gen-one Toyota Celica is, in a word, badass. As a long-standing fan of the marque, the doting owner has tried to both restore and improve his Celica keeping period-correct modifications in mind. The 20R/22R mashup engine is outputting roughly 185 horsepower and graced with a lot of JDM-specific parts and modifications. Clearly, the exhaust has been upgraded from stock, as clips of the orange Toyota in motion are accompanied by one hell of a nice sound.
Tastes clearly vary, and there's not as much love for the first-wave of Japanese metal as there is for similar era American-iron, but we're pleased to see these cars finally getting more time in the spotlight. Scroll down below to see why we're stoked, and consider cruising your local Craigslist for late 1970s and early 1980s Japanese coolness (before we get there first).

Toyota recalls slew of models for possible airbag calibration defect

Mon, 28 Jan 2013

Toyota is recalling sixteen models from the 2009 to 2013 model years over a potential issue with passenger seat airbag calibration. In spite of the large number of different Toyotas covered by the recall, just 3,235 units are included. These were vehicles installed with accessories like leather seat covers and headrest DVD systems by Southeast Toyota Distributors, and during the modifications the passenger seat occupant sensor system might not have been calibration tested. If the sensors aren't set up properly, the passenger airbag might not work as it should.
Affected models include: Avalon, Camry, Camry Hybrid, Corolla, 4Runner, FJ Cruiser, Highlander, Highlander Hybrid, Prius, Prius V, Rav4, Sequoia, Sienna, Tacoma, Tundra and Venza. Scroll down for the relevant model years for each.
The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration indicates that the recall will begin this month. Southeast Toyota will inform owners, at which time they can take their Toyotas to dealers for testing and repair. The complete bulletin from the NHTSA with more information is below.

Toyota previews new C-HR crossover concept bound for Paris

Mon, 15 Sep 2014

We're now just a few weeks away from the start of the Paris Motor Show, and when the doors open at the Porte de Versailles, Toyota will be among the many automakers with new wares to show - including the new concept car pictured in this latest teaser image.
Called the C-HR, the concept is designed to represent an "innovative vision for a compact crossover model", incorporating "a new design language with an engaging driving experience and a hybrid powertrain." The Japanese industrial giant isn't saying much else, but the C-HR is set to debut alongside the finalized exterior design for its upcoming new fuel cell sedan.
Toyota, of course, became a pioneer in the compact crossover segment when it introduced the first-generation RAV4 way back in 1994. If the silhouette is anything to go by, however, the C-HR concept appears to adopt a far more streamlined form. Watch this space for more.
