Re: 84' toyota 4x4. Whats this worth?

i Think its a beautifull truck. I spent 3200 for my truck full of dents minimal rust and lots of quirks.
i think my body is in way better shape than that rig but the engine and armor make up for it . as my truck sits right now without trail armor i was offered 5000. i think its a fair price but i have so much time invested not to mention money.
Snow toy is right though. i can dump 5000 more into it, fact is its only a 3000 truck no matter how much i spend.
unless the right person comes along.

if you were here in san diego 5 months ago when i was looking for a truck i would have offered 4000 and most likely would have went as high as 5800 just because its basicaly done and you dont have to go chasing and wasting valuble time. and i am good at body work and could fix the rust no problem.
here is a brief list of what i spent so far to compare to value here in socal
truck 3200
rear 3rd 400
drive shaft 300
rebuilt rear axle and brakes 300 plus my time
timming chain 250
new front axle housing 180
total rebuild of front axle with brake upgrade/ junk yard parts 300
paint and body 300 plus a 40 hour week of my time
degreaser 100
interior so far 500
raptor liner bed 120
all this equals almost 6000 and i did not even include lift springs and carpet etc !!!!   
just hold out for what you want just dont try and get all of your money back. good luck!
