Im looking at an 85 4 runner and was wondering what a fair price would be on it the modifications are:
bobbed 10 inches
Dual t-cases
22Re and 5 speed out of a 92
chevy mini truck break booster and MC
12 gallon fuel cell
Chevy springs
Some home made bumpers and winch i don't really want
Ifs steering box and high steer all dom tubing.
crappy exhaust
The rear axle
12bolt
disc break conversion
5.38 gears
Front axle
Center section from a HP dana 44
Chevy all outers and shafts
5.38 grears
38inch SX tires some cheap wheels
soft top only
The body is ok it has been beat on a little but still in ok shape very little rust, the typical silicone around the wind shield.
The interior is rough. the seats dont match, no console so on.

The only part that i can see that is mechanically bad is that under acceleration it some times kind of cuts out and drops power but cutting off the motor and cutting it back on while still moving seems to restore full power. Guy swears its bad gas. im skeptical.

Will ride 50mph with working speedometer fine, guy also said it had no problems with the interstate.

What would you be willing to pay for it? and is the motor cutting out a known problem? i did search. Thanks.
