Re: Acquired another one!

Very nice, I have a huge soft spot for highlanders. That has to be one of the cleanest ones I've seen. I agree with whoever said not to change anything that's not reversible. But then again, it's YOUR truck! Best of luck with it!

Re: Acquired another one!

Your hubcaps are original and correct for a highlander package. How did you find the truck, personal contact, Clist, Ebay or none of the above? As far as price goes you got a super deal on asuper original truck and there are lots of board members that have paid more for less, including me.

If it was mine I'd put rallys on it, polish it up and enjoy driving the truck.

I found it on Craigslist about 120 miles away. Im really surprised nobody snatched it up? I guess not everyone is into longbeds (including me originally) but once I seen it I had to have it. I have a 69 SWB in a million pieces in my garage at the moment also

Re: Acquired another one!

$6800 seems fair considering it won't need any paint or rust repair.

Re: Acquired another one!

Wow! Great survivor truck! Nice find at a great price to. As like others on here, when you find them like that, I too would not do anything to it. Maybe put some rally wheels on it and just drive it around. They are only original once. That's just my 2¢ worth. And just a fyi, I have the same type of mirrors on my truck and thought about changing them out, but I changed my mind after I saw an OEM set sell recently for nearly $400. Crazy price for OEM parts for these trucks nowadays.

I think the Medium Olive is an awesome color! It just screams 60's and 70's

Re: Acquired another one!

And mine doesn't say "Avacado Highlander" like BB72CHEVKT's but it most definitely is?

Re: Acquired another one!

I think (don't know) terminology was slightly different from plant to plant.
