got a good deal on this the other day so it will be built to keep me from tearing up my 85 runner long list of stuff but it will slowly make it

got the bed off today so getting it running is next and will go from there some parts may come off the runner for the build and put stock stuff back to it possibly bumpers and sliders and half doors

yeah man those doors look sweet
 
will be a few days until I can swap motors so cleaned out the inside a little and I put the half doors on and a spare rim I had here to see how it would look :beer:

got the motor out of the white one today next is to pull and install the donor out of the camo one I need to see what is wrong with the one I just pulled the guy I got it from said it was just rebulit but the guy did not put the oversize bearings in so it had a tick from the looks of it the top end has definetly been through I may pull the pan and see what I can do

it is alive and running still need to adjust timing and tps and adjust the valves feels like it is bogging under load but nevertheless it runs:driver:

swapped tires off the runner to see how much trimming i have to do and had to go hit the spot there filling in behind the house the auto seems to do decent so it will get run till it goes

So funny, I am building an '85 extracab (straight Front Axle), and my DD is an '86 runner (IFS) http://i295.photobucket.com/albums/mm142/85hinuff/DSCF0547-1.jpg
I have mismatched mirrors on my runner (the opposite of the ones on the truck in your pics) Small world, purchased these as a resto project for my 15 yr old and I. Funny small world Huh?!? I guess my ideas are not unique to me alone.
