I'm in awe... I have no clue how to build up (or maintain) something like that. None. Zip. Zilch.

Definitely the best-equipped/most modified truck on the board

19K for both? All I can think of is "F***** A.....there must be an EASY 30K of parts/mods on there...

Have you had your head examined for thinking of selling it? (just a thought) :LOL:

Is anyone here a doctor?
 
Hey pvstoy out of curiosity can you see the shower heat exchanger in the engine pictures, I can't spot anything that looks like it?

In the first engine bay picture look under the hand trottle for the welder / power supply and you will see a round copper tube. The SureFlow on demand pump and quick connect water fittings are behind the pass side bumper.

Got it. You sure get everything into there and still make it look organized, nice work.
 
Wow, the inside of that truck is Sano!

The 83 holds a special place in my heart. I was 15 at the time it came out and it was the deciding factor that I always wanted to own a Toyota 4x4. A buddy of mine built an 83 show / crawler with a plate that said "Stil2lo", it had a V8 in it and was totally insane.

Good luck with the sale, that is an amazing rig!
 
Can I assume the 83 Toyota has not sold yet?


Hi Tom,

I have the truck and camper...Send me a PM or e mail. I just back from a 3 day backpack...climbed Tower Peak, south of Sonora Pass area.

Sounds like an awesome trip! I wish I had that much fun this weekend! I did manage to get in a little Geocaching today... that was the extent of my weekend fun. I had to work Saturday.

I sent you an email off-list.
 
Sold it to a VERY nice person from Texas, Could not have gone to a better home. Sure will miss it...A LOT.
 
Patrick,

Congrats to you on the sale, but I have to admit it is a shame to see it go. That was easily the greatest expedition vehicle I have ever seen. All of us arguing over which truck is best could do nothing but stand aside and drool when looking at your setup. Hopefully the new owner will participate in the forum and keep us up to date with his/her adventures.

I couldn't agree more!
 
PVSTOY,

So what does the future hold? An even better rig with great mods to share with us I hope :D
