    I recently bought a 91' Toyota pickup 4x4 from the original owner here in Utah. 148k orginal miles. It's in fine condition, but will need rust treatment and some engine work. This is a great motivator for me to get started! Great content man

    I had a 1988 2WD base model that I bought brand new in early June of that year about a week before my 21st birthday. I LOVED that truck. Owned it for nearly 16 years before selling it to my best friend in early 2004. I needed the cash. Looking back, I wish I'd never sold it. I'd happily be driving it still today. Nice job of bringing this one back to life.

    My restored '87 definitely catches attention. Especially since it's red. Was always my favorite color, my first '87 that I had 20 years ago was "Toyota Red" so I did this one up just the same. I like that these trucks let people reminisce about days gone by and that's the main reason I restored the one I have now. It did take a long time to find one that hadn't been modified though. I searched for over 3 years actually, and ended up finding one in California which I shipped across country to NJ.

      They do look amazing in red. I just picked up a rare 85 that is red and road tripped it 800 miles back home. The video is on my page if you would like to check it out. I'll probably end up restoring it, but it has been modified.

      I'm lucky to live on the west coast of the US, so we don't deal with rust too much. It is the most rust free Toyota I have ever seen! We do have some states that eat away at frames in just a couple of winters, mainly on the east coast.

(mice little truck in your case). i don't understand why the manufacturers got away from just a basic truck that was built to last. sadly a drunk driver hit me head on on the interstate and it was totaled. i too lived in Arizona so rust was at a minimum.

      Finding parts nowadays is pretty difficult. The vinyl mat I got at rockauto. It is a huge pain to install it though. If I were to do it again, I would probably go with a different material. With all the other parts you need, I would just shop around on Ebay, rockauto, the local parts store and maybe even used parts off of offerup and craigslist. Even forums.
      Good luck with your build!

      Awesome! Sounds like a fun project.
      I use dawn dish soap in the foam cannon.
      And that rubber flooring is from Rock Auto. I think it was 150ish. It is a pain to install. If you go that route, definitely use heat to loosen it up a bit.
      Thank you, I appreciate it.
      Good luck with your project.

    Very nice, but if you went to all that trouble, you should bought or fabricated a new bench seat. Other than that, well done!

    • @ConservationGarage
      @ConservationGarage  10 หลายเดือนก่อน

      I agree 100%. My goal for this one was to reuse as much as I could. I had some bucket seats I was going to toss in it, but I wanted to keep to the theme of labor time over new parts. The better solution would have been to buy new fabric and foam for the bench seat and reupholster it. The metal frame was solid. The bench seat was definitely the weak point of the whole build.

    After seeing on 5th geargarage (cahnnel) the rust you guys have to deal with in the states......
    That looks like a very clean example. Rust wise, body is complete and no holes or obvious rust.
    So the diffs, hubs and transfer case were all good?

    • @ConservationGarage
      @ConservationGarage  11 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      Thanks for the comment! This is actually the most rust free Toyota I have seen in person. It just sat in the desert for a couple of decades so it didn't get too much moisture or salt. The only surface rust it had was from all of the rat excrement.

      If a refined process of quality and product were pursued, it would interfere with profit.
      Efficiency is not the objective, as you basically just questioned.
      The perfect truck was built long ago, now it is just pageantry.

      @@crush3095 it does seem so.
      I won't say that advances in suspension, differentials, valving, all of it, haven't made a better truck; but the line between integration with progress, and something already sufficient has become muddied.
      It's a mess.
      We all could be driving perfectly fine, efficient affordable trucks, or cars; but this system that we rely on really is strung tight.
      I could guarantee that if someone stepped forth, and started building modernized vehicles of a tried and true platform, it would dominate the market.
      Trucks get you, and your cargo, from point A to B. They don't need to be as complex as they are.
