Found my next car? 91 st185 beast, Thoughts/comments? Don't know all tracs that well Options

Hey,

Looking to get into a new car since the insurance company is telling me I'm losing the rental very soon.

Spotted this one for sale, and actually went and looked at it this weekend.

It is very clean as the seller describes. I usually am not interested in someone else's project, but I just can't seem to find anything I like in my price range right now (4-8k or so).

What are your thoughts? Any all trac owners with any thoughts? Help!

Coming from someone who owns two alltracs, if I had the liquid to drop on that car, I would have done it when he first posted it up.

$9k is a fair price given the body condition of the car alone. I would inquire as to the complete mod list to ensure that there are no cheap xspower turbos or crap like that on it.

I will warn you of this:

This is a modified 20 year old car. Toyota reliability is probably long gone by now. I don't know the background on this car, but most alltracs take a lot of work to be DD qualified.

I just went through his old posts on AT.net and you might luck out with this car. There were a few issues that he may have fixed, but I'd make sure you got all the ups and downs before taking the plunge.

I'll tell you though, when they are running well, they are some fun
