Bidding ends this evening for a 1986 Toyota 4×4 pickup equipped with the SR5 package, and despite having over 200,000 miles, it still presents quite well. The dry Texas climate almost certainly played a big role in this single-cab pickup remaining in such fine condition all these years, along with the longtime previous owner who clearly looked after it. The seller purchased it from the original owner last year, and has decided it’s time to move it along to the next owner for reasons that include a lack of comfort working on an older vehicle. Find the Toyota here on eBay with bids to $6,801 and the no reserve auction ending at 8 p.m. EST tonight.

What a great look – the single cab, short bed design with red paint and the gray decal kit. The upsized wheels and tires give it a bit more attitude without making it look lifted, but the seller notes one of the tires is an odd size. That’s the general tenor of this listing, as the seller freely admits to not being a mechanic in any sense of the word. The jargon indicates someone who doesn’t speak cars too often, and having three out of the four tires match with the fourth one an oddball is generally not recommended. In addition, the seller admits to trying to fix the A/C by converting it to R134, but that the attempt failed.

Despite being in the blistering Texas sun, the interior remains in surprisingly nice shape. The dash doesn’t even appear to be cracked. The seats are covered up, so there’s a good chance the upholstery is destroyed. The rest of the cabin looks to be in good order and remains highly original with a factory steering wheel, shift knob, and potentially even an OEM radio still in place. Toyotas from this era are delightfully simple machines if not borderline rudimentary, but they’ll go forever. The seller claims he has only driven the truck once or twice since acquiring it, but that everything works and that he can’t think of any reason it won’t go cross-country. The speedometer and fuel gauge ceased working in January.

The four-cylinder, 2.4L engine has a lot to do with that, as these are notoriously hard engines to kill and need only minimal upkeep if you’re a nickle-and-dime sort of guy. The seller says there are not outstanding needs with this truck, but also doesn’t report on any recent maintenance undertaken by him or the previous owner, such as belt changes, fresh fluids, ignition components, or suspension refreshes. I suspect in most cases, potential buyers will be looking at the rust-free bodywork and chassis, along with attractive paint and original graphics – and in that regard, the current bid price looks quite fair.
