    I'm feeling like it all worked out like it was me that to be. Believe it or not I've come out ahead with parting it out and separating the bits - at least financially

    I'm a little bitter about that. Maybe more than I should be, but it was a beautiful 4Runner. Basically I had a deal with the previous owner - had cash in hand and was heading over to pick it up when he calls to tell me that Scotty came up with the money + $500 all of a sudden ( supposedly Scotty offered half and half a week later or something) - I don't like playing games it potentially imaginary bidding wars so...

    I knew scotty would flip it for profit and that's business and all, but it kinda sucks. It was more the previous owners fault being hard up for cash and trying to get every dollar he could right away. However, There was a previous deal that left me salty with Scotty, with some brake calipers he wanted to buy/trade from me where he was shady and scamy about it when I delivered them. It just left s bad taste even though it Worked out fair in the end.

    So while he listed it it a fair price, I know exactly what he paid for it and how little work was done to it since he got it and combined with previous experiences dealing with with him... I couldn't buy it personally. In all fairness it had to be one of the nicest 4runners around for the price.

    Sorry to hear that your rig ended up being parts, but it sounds like you have a great new project lined up!

    It's a pretty cool rig, but I think he's too high on the price honestly. I actually already have a new 4runner and about halfway done with the 3.4 swap and given a couple more decent weekends I'll be ready to take it out and hit a trail finally.

    Agreed, blowing oil drops the price significantly IMHO.
