Hello Everyone,

I'm thinking about buying a 1987 4 runner. It looks like its in pretty good shape. 4 cylinder, 5 sp, 4wd. Nicer toyota rims. There is a small dent in the back. Power windows all work but passenger needs new motor. I drove it a short distance, felt good. No alignment problems. AC even works. There is a "sensor" thats disconnected because it "needs" to be replaced. Anyways, the dude will sell for $700. I think it a good deal but what the heck do I know? The engine has 180k miles. Think I could get another 50k? Any and all feedback is appreciated! What should I look for as far as engine wear/condition? Thanks a lot!

That Toyota 4 Cyl will last forever.

Jimgam,

You sound confident about the purchase....? Is there a way around the "smog test game"? I hear there is a fuel additive to "help"?

Where I live, nothing will get you by the smog testing except a good catalytic converter, good sensors, and a tune up.

cali?

I would go for it for sure. 700 you can't go wrong.
