that would be cool if they came out with a first gen 4runner body, especially with a removable shell.

But I've seen capable 3/4 and 1 ton full sizes. If I was gonna build a trail rig though, I wouldn't go with a new truck. I've got an IFS Chev. I just needed to be able to make it up to the mountain for snowboarding. She's wayyy to purty to get her all mucked up on a trail. Edit: Guess I'll be beatin the hell out of the pavement.

| Here's the resolution Toy 4x4
Builld multiple molds for the body Both early and late body styles build molds for - 1. Entire front end to the back of the cab, with the doors molded in. An individual can leave the doors in, cut out the doors or make half doors as desired. The mold could contain 2 transition pieces (door frames) to make them look prettier for scale. (or left out) 2. Mold the standard pickup bed. If not exactly the same, the bed is almost identical to the 4Runner back end. (I can't do a side by side right now.) This mold could contain an extension piece for the 'Xtra' model's cab. If builder wants the Xtra cab version he can cut a piece out of the standard bed and splice the front panel back into the new bed. The wheelbase is different for the Xtra cab but we could fake it and make a short bed Xtra cab. 3. Mold the removable top and, if necessary, an adapter to the cab. I'd probably be on the mark if I suggested you wouldn't see many Xtra cabs as crawlers but it is easy to accomodate them. The difficult task might be to decide to do early or late models ('1st and 2nd generaton') but I'm sure you'd have audiences for each of them. I think the 'early' model was up to 85, and late was up to 88. (My '89' was actually manufactured in 88 before the 3rd generations '89> started showing up in late 89. It's not relevant here except to satisfy the crtics. For simplicity, if both styles are done, the kit should contain all three shells. I'll take one 2nd generation set to start and may have to have a second one also. I had a 4Runner bt now have an Xtra cab. |

I'd love to get this body too. I'm a bit partial to them myself. I'd attribute it to back to the future as well. Northeast winters weren't kind to the one I stripped for the axles and t-case in a my Samurai project. |

TRUCK (xtra cab), 84-89. I have owned 83 long bed, 89 4 Runner, and 94 xtra cab. Still want the 85 extra cab. the cab doesn't add that much wheel base and provides much more intior storeage for such things as a sutible sub and such. That has always been Toyota's biggest down fall in trucks was it audio systems. Truck... |
