This is my newly acquired 1985 SR5 6 speed. My uncle bought it from the first owner. I remember seeing this thing in his garage since I was a kid. It has been sitting for about 12 years after first gear went out and then got stuck in 2nd. I towed it back to Colorado from Nebraksa last week.
I think the body and interior are in great shape for having 220,000 miles. The fist step is swapping the trans.
Hope these pictures come out.
