1983 Toyota 4WD Pickup / Hilux Description

HI !! THANKS FOR CHECKING THIS COOL LITTLE TRUCK OUT.
HERE IS THE RUN DOWN 0N THIS 1983 TOYOTA 4 WHEEL DRIVE (4X4) HILUX 2-DOOR REGULAR CAB LONG BED PICKUP TRUCK.
THIS IS A PERSONAL VEHICLE I HAVE OWNED FOR THE LAST 4 YEARS. THE PREVIOUS OWNER WAS A FRIEND I PURCHASED IT FROM. HE WAS AN OVER THE ROAD TRUCK DRIVER AND DROVE A PETERBUILT RIG. HE OWNED THIS TRUCK FOR 13 YEARS AND PUT APPROX. 200 MILE ON IT. HE IS A METICULOUS INDIVIDUAL AND DID MANY MECHANICAL THINGS TO IT OVER THE TIME HE OWNED IT. I AM ALSO AN AVID CAR LOVER WITH MANY COLLECTIBLE TOYS AND ALSO METICULOUS INDIVIDIDUAL AND TOOK GOOD CARE OF HER.
2014 PURCHASED.
THE TIME I OWNED THIS TOYOTA. I USED THE TRUCK TO TRANSPORT SMALLER PARTS FROM WAREHOUSE TO LOCAL DELIVERIES AND OTHER SHORT RUNS (A.K.A GROCERY GETTER). VERY SELDOM USED THE 4X4 OPTION. IT WORKS PERFECTLY WITH NO ISSUES. SHIFTS PERFECTLY AND RUNS STRONG.
MOTOR DOES NOT SMOKE OR MAKE ANY UNUSUAL NOISES. TRANSMISSION SHIFTS SMOOTHLY.THE OIL WAS RECENTLY CHANGED. DURING THE TIME I OWNED IT I PUT A BATTERY, NEW RADIATOR AND WATER PUMP (REPLACED WITHIN LAST 2 YEARS). IT HAS A NEW CAP AND ROTO, WIRES AND PLUGS INSTALLED. ALL WITHIN PAST YEAR. CARBURATOR WAS PROFESSIONALLY REBUILT A COUPLE YEARS AGO AS WELL. BEEN TRULY A GREAT LITTLE TRUCK AND HATE TO SEE HER GO.
THESE ARE THE OPTIONS THIS 4X4 HAS
2.4 LITRE 22R MOTOR
5 SPEED TRANSMISSION
FRONT SOLID AXLE WITH LOCKING HUBS
AIR CONDITIONING (NEEDS WORK) NEVER HAD IT SERVICED. PREVIOUS OWNER SAID IT HAD A LEAK. NEVER FIXED.
ALUMINUM WHEELS WITH DAYTON TIRES. (MOST LIKELY NEED REPLACED IF GONNA USE FOR OFF ROAD). HOLDAIR. ALOT OF TREAD LEFT.
PLASTIC BED LINER
BUCKET SEATS (DRIVER IS TORN ON SEAT BOTTOM AND PASSENGER SIDE HAD A CANDLE FROM SUN MELT ON THE CLOTH. NEED RESTORED.
HAS AN AFTERMARKET STEERING WHEEL. A DEEP DISH SOCKET IS BEING USED FOR THE SHIFT KNOB.

THESE ARE A FEW THINGS RECOMMEND REPLACING.
SHOCKS ALL WAY AROUND
WINSHIELD HAS CHIPS( WILL NEED REPLACED EVENTUALLY) AND SEALS AROUND THE OPENING WILL NEED RELACED AS WELL..
ALSO SUGGEST REPLACING ALL FLUIDS. OIL WAS RECENTLY CHANGED. STRAIGHT 40 WEIGHT
THE ODOMETER STOPPED WORKING A FEW WEEKS AFTER I PURCHASED IT IN 2014. NEEDS REBUILT OR REPLACED.
IT ALSO NEEDS POWER STEERING PUMP REPLACED OR REBUILT. WORKS BUT HOWLES WHEN IT'S COLD OUTSIDE.
FLOOR MATS ARE MISSING.
PAINT AND BODY :
PAINT APPEARS TO BE ORIGINAL.EXCEPT HOOD AND TAILGATE. TRUCK WAS TOUCHED UP IN AREAS BY ME WITH A RATTLE CAN. REAR TAIL GATE IS NOT ORIGINAL TO TRUCK WAS PAINTED WITH A DUPLI COLOR BLUE RATTLE CAN . TAIL GATE WAS WHITE WHEN I ORIGINALLY PURCHASED IT. DOES MATCH FAIRLY WELL. MOST LIKELY TRUCK WILL NEED REPAINTED DOWN THE ROAD. UNLESS YOU WANT THE PATINA LOOK. HAS SURFACE RUST ALL OVER TRUCK NO RUST THROUGH THAT IS MAJOR,ONE SMALL AREA ON THE BED. BODY DOES HAVE DENTS AND THE BED HAS THE RIVOT BUMPS. (FROM FACTORY) CHASSIS IS IN EXCELLENT CONDITION. I WOULD SAY THIS TRUCK IS 85% ORIGINAL. WHEELS, STEERING WHEEL,SHIFT KNOB, FLOORMATS AND MECHANICAL ITEMS LISTED ARE THE ONLY THINGS I CAN VERIFY NOT ORIGINAL.
I NEVER TOWED WITH IT. JUST LIGHT HAULING IN THE BED. PLEASE FEEL FREE TO CONTACT ME IF YOU WANT THE SPECIFICS. I PREFER TO TALK ON PHONE SO I CAN EXPLAIN THROUGHLY WHAT YOU ARE PURCHASING. IT IS A SOLID TRUCK AND WOULD DRIVE IT ON A 500 + MILE TRIP WITH NO HESTITATION.

* THIS VEHICLE IS BEING LISTED LOCALLY OUTSIDE OF EBAY AND LISTING IS SUBJECT OF BEING ENDED AT ANYTIME DURING THE 10 DAY DURATION.I really prefer local pickup but will help get it transported .
I have the Title in hand. A 500.00 DEPOSIT IS REQUIRED WITHIN 24 HOURS OF AUCTIONS END.
