for-sale 1996 Toyota 4 Runner Limited

[Slingblade]

Update 3/7/24 price drop to $7000 please text me as I am not good about remembering to check here. 

1996 Toyota 4Runner Limited. 192k miles. No rust. Power everything. Runs drives great. Engine is very smooth and quite. No mechanical issues. I would drive this thing anywhere. Almost everything works except a couple little things (see below). This is an excellent vehicle for a tactical rig, an overlander build, or simply a daily commuter. Over all pretty clean in my opinion for a 27 year old truck. It is bone dry and does not leak to my knowledge. Recent pressure washing produced no leaks.

The minor items it needs or should be noted: Power antenna doesn't work however I don't know for sure if its powered or not. Interior has a couple bad spots on dash and arm rest/console. Interior is original and front seat have covers on them. I don't know what they look like underneath but I was told be previous owner he put them on the prevent future damage. I expect they are like the rear seat condition but I do not plan to uncover just to see. Needs rear wiper blade. Because of that I have not tested rear wiper. Don't want to scratch the window. Dome light only comes on when passenger rear door is opened. The other three doors wont activate it. Door switches maybe? Could possibly use rear shocks. Its a tad soft. Paint is sunburnt and has a great patina. You may or may not like that. If were to keep it I would clear over it and keep the patina. The worst thing on the whole vehicle is the ignition key. Its pretty cantankerous. Takes several attempts to get key to work with just the right combination of jiggling and fidgeting. Toyota parts department guy said its likely the worn key. Key is $25. If it needs a new ignition its $227. Oh and the last thing can think of is could use new rubber trim seals where the fender flares mount up to body. 

Asking $8750 obo. 

I love this thing! Come get it before I decide to keep it. You may text me (Dean) at 6 one 5 8 one 5 four 8 zero 8 for any questions or additional images.
