Better hurry I hear that everything these guys has is top quality and will go fast,:rolleyes: Trekker Information (http://adcache.collectorcartraderonline.com/10/8/1/1720481.htm) :flipoff2:

I didn't know they made 4Runners in 83.... :rolleyes: ....I'd give him $2000 tops

I heard they sold it? A couple years ago I saw it listed at $17,500! $13,500 for a rig that you'd need to redo a lot to make it flex :D I think it looks real nice though, but to nice for me.

It is not a runner it is a GRIFFITH TRAILBLAZERS . Toyota tested the market for SUVs by having these made in a limited production by an afermarket company build. I think there were two companies that did it, Griffith and Winnebago (sp?). They did the ame thing in the 70's for the mini 4x4. That i a damn nice look rig.:cool: :cool: :usa:

I bet they'd drop the price over 10K for ya :flipoff2:

Also, it's not a Treeker, it's a Trailblazer. Same truck differant name is all. If it had anything but NWOR junk on it, everyone would be all wet over it ;) I personally think it's worth close to that amount, just beacuase it's rare, low miles, and in great shape. I bet it rides like a tank with those springs though! :eek: :rolleyes:

So, i stand corrected, thanks for the history...

that is a clean rig, and probably not for this group.
and the trailblazers tops do not come off and the bed is not glass. i have seen one in a yard here and there is another running around from time to time, in fact i grabbed the trailblazer tag and it is now at home on my glove box:)
i would say, throw some AP springs and crossover on there and FAWKING GET IT!

well there is a treaker 4sale here on por and the top comes off it, and I think he said the bed was glass too;) this is something toyota should buy back and put in a history museam.

they are two different trucks, made by two different companys.
trekkers are glass bedded and removable tops.
trailblazers are not.
i would guess, they had two different people build them to see what kind of reactions they'd get from the public.
and i have only seen later 82-83 trailblzers (square headlights)
and the trekkers i have seen are round headlights.
i personally like the look of the trailblazer better, and being from oregon i like the trailblazers:)
but you can go wrong with a removable top.

Winnebago made the "Trekker".
Griffith Industries made the "TrailBlazer".

One of my friends in Lemoore has an 83 TrailBlazer. It's a steel bed, fiberglass cap, and fiberglass covers between the bedsides and the cab sides. It also has an integrated roll bar inside the glass.

Opp's said who made what earlier:D

That is a nice truck but to nice to be paying that price. I would rather build it then buy one like that

At least it's got those great "tank flex" NWOR springs. I bet it's got all their other stuff on it, too. Can you fit "Bad customer service" into a vehicle? :D

That's why it has the shell on the back, so the "bad customer service" doesn't get soggy, or fade in the sun!! :D

I like both trucks. I have an 82 trailblazer built up pretty good, and an 81 Trekker for my daily driver. The trekker looks a little better I think, but the glass back is not for wheeling.

I didnt know you had both.

I have an '81 Trekker. the front is all stock and the back of the cab was cut out and the fiberglass bed and canopy was bolted on. works just like a 4runner. The tops were not easily removed fromt "the factory" but after you pull them off the 1st time, its easy. As for the glass, its a atter of opinion. I like my Trekker, but sometimes I wish it wasnt "special" so I would be able to beat it more. I removed the top and have not put it back on in a long time. Even though its always raining here.

I have not actually touched a Trailblazer, but I was driving next to one, checking it out. It appears as if the top is not removable. And the Bed is stock. (which I like) But the top overlaps the bed and cab, which looks a little :barf: to me...

If I could do it over, I would have the Trekker set up with a 22RE, stock drivetrain, 33s and have it as a daily driver. To late. now, I hacked that firewall too much. That 350 needed the room. :D
