this will be Yotaworks' first build!
the background:
my buddy was hit head on driving to yakima in his 85 4runner. the truck was totaled. he ended up getting $7700 PLUS got to keep the truck from the insurance company. so with the money he bought another 85 4runner. the plan is to grab the badland bumpers/ slider and the axles off the old and throw them under the new. do some body touch up and clean up the new one and get it back on the road. he wants to part out / scrap what he can off the old 4runner.
In with the new:
its an 85 4runner that already has a built 350 with a turbo350 tranny and toyota Tcase. the bellhousing is cracked that has to be replaced. but after that it should be a fairly simple swap
