I have a passion for the automobile, a deep connection that all car people understand, an unspoken bond between you, the car you're looking at and whatever era motorcar that has captured your attention at that moment. This is my journey as I photogragh anything I see that catches my eye and stimulates some emotion. No matter if it's a car show, something I see on the street or in a junkyard, I will get a picture and post it here.

Gen One Toyota 4 Runner
I'm stupid.
That's right, and I like to buy old cars and if I didn't already have two and live in an apartment, my stupidity would demand this purchase.
Long before SUV's were all the rage, Toyota nailed it with this one. A multi-passenger convertible 4x4 truck, that was a good size for trails and looked great too. Backed up by the legendary Hi-Lux platform, there was no doubt it would be one tough hombre.
I've owned several Toyota trucks over the years but never a four runner and have a huge soft spot in my heart for gen one runners. Would love to strip this down, clean it up, small lif and some 33's and call it a day.
Well, maybe next time....
