First the 3.0 is a fantastic motor, they’ll go 300k plus all day so long as you take care of them. If it’s an auto it is gutless. If it’s manual they are quite fun. Those minor leaks under hood appear to be valve gasket leaks not head gaskets. She looks like a great little truck!
The holes above radio, one is for a power antenna up & down switch. Mine still works. The other hole IDK just be creative like do a on board air switch system or extra cab or exterior lights or a trick button to start engine but it releases colored smoke to make theives run away, cuz people try to steal those trucks, watch out. They are stolen a lot and taken to Mexico. The stock rims alone go for 500$ each. I love my 35 year old 4x4 truck and i'm the only one that will drive it. It's been there always for me more than any woman, haha.

Great truck man. Great project
Don’t focus so much on it being the wrong motor, you have an absolute GEM of a truck on your hands.
Great find good luck.
Just had an 88 Toyota 4x4 given to me today! I’ll be in the same boat!

Excited to see the series!
The small brackets behind the seats are for a shelf that goes across the back..
The 3.0 isn’t a bad engine. Take care of it and it’ll take care of you
