  • So Trans Am rescued this pickup, and I volunteered to get it rolling again. She's gonna need some work before we can rode it. Its been sitting for 10 years, and little vermin have made it there home. But she will ride again. Its a 1977 Toyota SR5 with the 20R power plant. When it was parked last, the previous owner said it ran rough, and was losing coolant. Perfect! Let us open it up and see what kind of money pit we have found!

    I've had two '77 toyota pickups, both 5-speed longbeds. Favorite trucks I've ever owned, and I've owned quite a few trucks. Happy to see this thing getting rescued!

      Happy to present it to the UA-cam community! You will see it running at least in Part 3 and driving/power-washed in Part 4 I believe. Waiting on the final parts for our next installment(part 3), but the 20R is sitting comfortably in the engine bay right now. Radiator in, fuel system intact, just waiting on the head gasket. Cheers!

    Hi Chris! I've never owned one of these myself, but a few of my friends did. As an aside, my grandfather bought a new 1976 Datsun 620 pickup. That little devil scurried around forever. In the end, it was the rust that finally did it in.

    Also these trucks came from the factory with no rear bumper, like most Japanese pickups. Most dealerships installed them third party, but if you look at any of the factory brochures or ads from the era, they never had them new. Pretty good chance this never ever had one.

    • @SwedeMachine
      @SwedeMachine  3 роки тому +1

      Oh really? Ah that explains it. I think it did have a very minor collision in the rear left side, but nothing significant. Explains why the body has a very minor dent, and why the bumper never stopped it...because it wasn't there. Makes sense. Thanks for the info boss!
