  • Hey there! Toyota Pickups, defiantly one of my favorite vehicles ever. From Top Gear to WhistlingDiesel they defiantly have a strong background! So how about ours? This is a 1984 Toyota Pickup with a solid front axle and the 22R Motor in a SR5 Extra Cab. This truck was left in a field from 1999-2021 when it sat for another year in a tow yard. Lets see if it runs!
    This truck will turn into a mcfly truck in the future! Speaking of so...
    Interested in making your own Mcfly truck? Check out my mini series here, where we go from what to look for to building one!

    I knew that was gonna run. 197K is pretty low mileage for a Toyota.

    This was such a fun video to watch, I am genuinely surprised the engine actually cranked over. I doubted it would, but it actually ran and managed to engage the transmission in reverse. I would have dropped in new oil and filter, fresh gas, air/fuel filters, new spark plugs/wires and distributor cap all the simple stuff then would have tried to start it. The fact you didn't clean the carb out or do any of that prior to cranking it over gave me a little bit of anxiety. But man was that impressive, an absolute testament to the reliability and durability of toyotas and the little classic 22r engine.

    My first vehicle was an '88 with the 22r. I got it when it was 10 years old. The carbureted models weren't as common by that point but I liked how old school it was.

    I prefer the 22r over the 22re imo maybe just because I like carburetors more than Injectors

      Great trucks, i have an 86 just hit 150k original miles, they will surely out last us. A buddy of mine has an 87 with over 500k miles on the original engine, only had to replace the clutch 2-3 times and radiator aside from general maintenance. Hold onto it bro, they're gonna sky rocket in price in the coming years and be considered retro/vintage mini trucks.

    Don’t know how I got here but this is really cool. I have 2 85 sr5 efi extra cabs. One black that I got off a farm that’s a basket case missing lots of stuff looks just like that one. The white one bought off the original owner my friend.it the cats meow. Super nice fully loaded but the only thing is the original sr5 print bucket seats were bad and had to replace it with a bench. I kept the head rest with the print and put them on my split bucket bench. . I pulled a set of buckets just like yours out of a wrecking 84 sr5 yard last year lucky find. Oh yeah also own 89 sr5 loaded runner first gen. Subbing for the build.

    It’s got “ back to the future “ written all over it ( or was that a 1985 ? ) . Glad you said Marty McFly , that was the first thing that came to mind from the thumbnail . I once drove a long bed SR5 that someone loaned to me for a day . I was impressed . I tried to talk,the owner into letting me convert it to 4WD if I can get the drivetrain off a stolen one in the woods but that was a big NO . Maybe I was better off , wasn’t a big fan of getting caught stripping a car by the cops 😳 . Was just 19 or 20 then so I needed some guidance .

      This is very true. This was more of a mental thing for me haha, a great example was I had the period correct cluster in for one show and another I had the 88’s in. Not an eyebrow was raised. It was more just of how close I could get it do the detail. Overall this truck has been a blast and I hope I get to share it with many more people
