It was bought and parked for nearly 30 years. There's a bit of rust on the body and a couple dents where something fell on it but the interior is like new. For sale on Ebay. Current bid about $41k.
LISTING

It would be a nice truck to have but that's way out of my price range for an old one. I'm not a collector.

That price and the first thing you have to do is take it to Toyota to get the frame replaced.

Sweat barn find but yeah 41k it’s more than what I’d pay for it.

Reminds me of a 94 that I had. Nice little vehicles but not worth that kind of money, barn find or not. I don't think you are going to run it very long without some leaks with rubber seals and hoses that have been sitting that long.

I always liked the simple styling on that generation of Toyota trucks. I was hoping they would revive it on the the new Tundra's. But alas, I guess they have determined that most buyers want over-the-top monster truck styling now.

Salt on the roads did that. This one has never been on salty roads and, at that price, never will be. It'll spend the next 50 years in a heated showroom.

I agree with everybody on the value and the outrageous price; but, man that's a pretty nice barn find. It would be interesting to know the story behind that. My speculation is that it would be a sad story involving a death.

The new tundra is kinda ugly, but where they really fugged up is in the payload. My current Tundra is 14 years old and I was hoping to replace it with a gently used one in a couple of years, but with the weak payload, it just isn't an option.

Mice nest in the air cleaner, chewed up wiring. They can do a lot of damage to a vehicle sitting for a year yet alone 30 years.

If you can afford the asking price, you can afford the fixing price.

Base 80's Toyota a collector item? They were about 18K brand new. Some people have to much money.

The low mileage is what makes it valuable...to a collector. It's supposed to be the lowest mileage of any similar aged pickup in existence. It's rarity is what runs up the price. It'll never be driven because the buyer won't want the odometer to ever reach 100. Leaks will never be fixedso to preserve it's originality.
