So I sold that white Acura...

Yup, sent that POS down the road. Someone else can deal with it, it was too abused in its previous life, a lost cause so to say.

I bought an '85 Toyota SR5 Pickup with an exhaust leak and a temperature control problem. I traded my old laptop to Adam for his '83 toyota pickup for parts, and an '87 4runner motor to go into this '85 (complicated, huh?). Ben L. and I pulled the motor out of the '85 in one night and had the new '87 4runner motor in and running the next day. It was a marathon, but it runs awesome now. I put a Downey exhaust header with a new gasket on the new motor, and added an MSD coil and some other stuff that came with the '83 truck. I put my old 32" tires off my Jeep on it last night and torched off some horrible towbar/bumper crap the previous owner put on it.



This is right after I bought it:



And this is it after I washed it for the 1st time today (yeah, the doors don't match... SHHHH!):



Now I can't decide if I want to keep it or sell it... I was going to sell it, but it's growing on me... I think I'm attached.
