Normal 0 false false false MicrosoftInternetExplorer4 1997 Toyota Tacoma. New body style, not prone to rotting out.... SOLID frame and body, the 4wd models were the ones with the frame rot out issues. 2wd 5 speed with a 2.7 4cyl engine (dual overhead cam style, very powerful for what it is – THIS IS NOT THE OLD 22RE Engine, or 2.4). New timing chain and guides about 10000 miles ago along with water pump, front oil seal on the crank. 187000 on body and motor. Black exterior. Tan interior. Very minimal rust... Small surface spot on door and fender, and small spot on tailgate, Door is the size of a quarter, fender is size of a dollar. Clean interior, again clean non smelling, no people or animals lived inside it. AC, clock, AM/FM Radio, No power windows or locks, no cruise. Full bench seat that is nice, not all torn up. New radiator, clutch fan and power steering belt. Tinted windows. No leaks, noises or any weird vibrations or crap like that. No smokes, engine runs like it has 18000 on it. Again No frame or body rot... This vehicle will last a long time. The only thing’s it needs: Exhaust donut by the header, its not very loud, but it does leak (this just happened about 1 week ago). This throws an emissions code as well (check engine light, I have a scanner). Fix the donut and the code will go off. I didn’t get that far, possibly I will have it fixed this week, again it just happened. Exhaust is in good shape, with the cat still there, and muffler, tail pipe. No holes or any rust. AC does not work. AC condenser will need to be replaced and the AC recharged if someone is picky about it.... Hit a dear earlier this spring that dented the front bumper and took out the AC condenser and put a hole in the radiator... Hence why there is a new radiator installed... New grill and headlights already installed. Bedliner and huskyliner floor mats to protect the carpet. Hood had rust by the hinge (where it latches to the front of the vehicle) and was fiber glassed. It looks rough, but works.... Semi amateur job done by me in a hurry, but it works (you could sand this down, smooth it out and repaint it if you would like). It is a back and forth daily driver for work, so I was not too picky about it. Rear Tires are decent and will need to be replaced by winter; they will get you through summer. Fronts are excellent. Small crack in windshield on lower passenger side (does not obstruct view). I am missing 1 hub cap, which I priced from Toyota and it is pretty inexpensive. There is a crack in the windshield, pass side. It does not obstruct the view, and I see no reason to replace it. It is very low, and again does not obstruct the view, so you cannot be ticketed for it. It’s over 10 years old, why get picky... It will need front brake pads soon, again since I drive this daily, I might do this before the auction ends. Honestly I think is key; I am telling you all I know unlike 95% of the people selling crap on clist and e^ay. NO JOYRIDES OR IDIOTS... The internet seems to be full of them these days.... It’s a running/driving daily driver that gets 30 MPG and I wouldn’t hesitate to drive it to California and back tomorrow if I had to. Also if someone out of state wants it, I can pick them up at the airport in central WI. Mosinee, CWA is the airport prefix. Good WI Title. I don’t need to sell, but have my sights on another rig. The low ballers, spammers can pound sand.... READ THE AD, all the info is here. I see lots of “dealers” selling these same trucks for $3000-$4000 and I think they are nuts. No reserve, high bidder takes this truck home. Don’t waste my time if you have to “sell” your vehicle first. No trades unless it benefits me. I’m not a dealer, nor am I am bank. Have you funds together before you EMAIL ME. Contact me direct at weigellj@yahoo.com Also if you are an off-road, or rockcrawler type guy, you can swap a 85 toyota solid axle into these and run an inchworm adapter for a 4tcase and keep the stock 5 speed, or swap a 5 speed and tcase into it. Very easy to make it into a low buck rock crawler or buggy. Check my feedback it is 100% for a reason. $250 paypal down payment at auction end, and I will ship the vehicle on the buyers dime. BALANCE IN CASH, no checks, money orders, nigerian checks, food stamps, or any stuff like that.
