owens 3rd gen

howdy, my name is owen and im a 16 year old from new england and I resently got my dream first car. 1999 4 runner limited. me and my grandpa were driveing to the junk yard and on our way he asked me if i wanted to look around. he also asked what my "dream first car" is and i told him, "3rd gen 4 runner. But its hard to find a nice one for a good price" and as we pulled into the junk yard it was like a movie. dead center there was a silver 3rd gen sitting there. bone stock and good conditon. a bit of rust, but a hell of a lot less then what ive seen on ebay for dubble the price.

the guy gave me an epic deal on the car too because he is buddys with my grandfather. I gave the guy 1500$ the next day and im sure that was the best money ive ever spent. later that day my buddy knew the first owners son. the guy was a car parts dealer and he died from cancer about a year ago. the guys son used the truck for trash runs just to keep the thing moving he got sick of the thing and took it to the junk yard

just under 190,000 miles and the fluids were all brand new.

 

Nice find, and welcome to the forum.
