1981 Toyota HILUX Shortbed 5speed 4wd Original Blue California Plates

Original unmolested California Truck. Five Speed manual 22r with no a/c. Originally a San Diego Truck and California raised. Has been very well cared for and pampered occasionally. The motor runs great. The 4wd High and Low shifts excellent. All doors and windows functions as it should. Glass are also excellent. All tachometers and electronics in functioning order and yes even the light under the dash works! An aftermarket radio has been added but the dash was not cut instead the radio plastic face was trimmed. Included, CB radio with speakers as well. Also, he great light weight 1980s circa Brahma bed topper will be included in the sale. The shell is in great shape and all windows and shutters are excellent. There are no signs of rust on this truck. The undercarriage is solid and so the motor area and surroundings. The original dash has no warping but the honeycomb speaker area like all other have divots. The carpet is all original and very clean for its age. Exterior paint shows nice when waxed. Some areas appear more shinier than others. The original sr5 decals are peeling on most places. 3 small dings on left rear panel due to age. Front black bumper is without dents or bruises. Rear chrome bumper shines great when buffed and also dentless. Original wheels with Toyota caps. Wheels can use a blast and powder coating to bring her back to the glory days. She never fails, tarts in any weather condition. This truck is by far the most original, he most cleanest and untampered first gen I'd come across. At one point the transmission was rebuilt by Marlin in Fresno, a. I do have some some very meticulous records that shows the history dating back from 1996 to current; gas fill ups, il changes, une up, mogs, epairs etc. This truck is 35 years old and please expect that of an old truck but it sure doesn't look like it's giving up anytime soon. It gets gawked at, trangers will converse with you and thumbs up everywhere you go. I've debated with myself and finally I'm ready to let her go.., opefully to a respectful owner or collector. Own a piece of history, n icon. A Toyota.
The tire treads are good but the sidewalls has cracks. City driving would be okay but highly recommend changing before hitting the freeways. Front right wobbles at speeds over 50mph. Tires may need balancing or new instead. California Clean title but the registration just expired December 2015. Currently on Non Operating status and no fees owed to DMV.
