'84 Xtra Cab V-8

The time has come for me to sell my rig. Gas costs are just too high for what I make to keep it going. As such the truck has more-or-less sat for the last few years and needs some attention which I have been unable to give it.

Specs:
  • 1984 Toyota Xcab 4wd pickup purchased new by me in June '84
  • 149010 miles on (broken) odometer, true mileage closer to 200k
  • 1964 Chev 283 bored .060 over and supercharged (engine is tired and in need of replacement)
  • Holley analog Pro-Jection fuel injection
  • MSD-6T ignition
  • SM420 transmission (pops out of second gear)
  • Dual 23-spline transfer cases, 2.28 gears in both with All-Pro output shaft & triple-stick shifter
  • OTT transfer case adapter
  • Custom Ford 9-inch rear axle w/Moser shafts and disc brakes
  • Rear Detroit locker, front welded
  • 20-gal factory fuel tank plus 20-gal reserve tank from a Jeep
  • Bed mounted Ford style radiator with twin 15-inch electric fans
  • Onboard air
  • Full complement of mostly Autometer gages
  • Jaz racing seats
  • In-cab roll cage
  • 38.5 Ground Hawgs on 15×10 steel rims
  • Quick release doors

Known issues:
  • Right front birfield missing
  • Steering could seriously benefit from crossover
  • Speedo/odo doesn't work
  • PTO driven OBA needs new drive pulley, electric OBA works well
  • Engine has 80k miles on second rebuild and is bored to max now. Another small-block Chev V8 or 4.3 V6 should be a relatively simple swap as most of the hardware is already there
  • No battery but will start with a jump
  • Not currently registered but has good clean title
  • Has been rolled onto roof once and onto driver's side door once
  • SM420 pops out of 2nd (starting) gear
  • Exhaust leaks at headers

This is not a pristine truck but has served me well on the trail over the years. I also have some spare transfer case parts and most of an '83 front axle that I had begun to build up as a replacement for the existing one. These parts will be thrown in if you want them otherwise they'll be tossed.

I'm asking $2000 but no reasonable offer will be refused. Contact me via PM or email toy283@yahoo.com for more information. I'm located in the Denver, CO area
