    I recently picked up a '95 to make me a new 4runner owner. (As in a new owner of a 4runner, not an owner of a new 4runner.) The interior is in immaculate condition and the exterior is a bit faded and hail dinged but she's still a gem.

    I don't have any good pictures yet as I don't use a smartphone. But as soon as I get some I'll post them up. Although everyone has seen the gold(ish) 2nd generation 4runners completely stock. ha!

    Also, I've noticed aftermarket part manufacturers don't give ANY love to the 1st or 2nd gens. I'm having a heck of a time finding anything specific to my year.

    Oooh look, another mod.....

    It's mainly because:

    A) 1st & 2nd gen's are so hard to find. They're 30 - 40yrs old and most have been lost to wrecks, rust, neglect, etc...
    B) The owners of most 1st & 2nd gens is (I'm guessing of course) they want to keep them OEM. They don't want a big steel front/rear bumper or raptor lights on their old school ride.

    Good point. I'm just looking for some nice steps or rails. I'd even love to find some factory running boards. I just hate those little individual drop down steps that keep popping up everywhere.

    Alright... Finally got a picture of my runner. Bare with me as I have stepped away from smartphone ownership. This makes grabbing spontaneous photos a bit challenging.
