what toy is this? - Pirate4x4.Com : 4x4 and Off-Road Forum

toyotanuts · 02-06-2008, 07:21 PM

Does anyone know what kind of truck this is. I know it's not a trekker or trailblazer not unless their are different styles cause i have owned both. I thought it was a wolverine but all the pics i find are 80 or older 4x4 conversions. plus it's a long bed. Maybe some kind of kit you could buy?

toyotanuts · 02-06-2008, 07:23 PM

close up of the top. Doesn't look like it would come off easy.

UKMyers · 02-06-2008, 07:26 PM

Interesting did you buy it? Looks fairly clean for it's age.

billybob13 · 02-06-2008, 07:37 PM

prehistoric 4runner! that's what i'm talkin' about.

kylecdean · 02-06-2008, 07:43 PM

alomost looks like a homemade 4runner

684FRO · 02-06-2008, 07:51 PM

well it is not the best looking thing i have ever seen, but its different for sure. is the top removable?

94toytruck · 02-06-2008, 08:00 PM

That thing deffinitly looks different.

jedrattle · 02-06-2008, 08:01 PM

I have no idea what it is called or who made it. There is a guy around here, driving one of those with the roof off.

84runner · 02-06-2008, 08:18 PM

Wow,

There are only 3 types I've ever heard of;

Trekker made by Winnebago
Trailblazer made by Griffith
Worlverine made by ?

But yours is way different!? Who's the shell made by? Does it have a brand anywhere on it? The lines on it are way more artsy than the others...

popaoneil · 02-06-2008, 09:15 PM

guy down the street from me had this one.IMG]

MT-Toy · 02-06-2008, 09:17 PM

Kinda looks like it has a toupe on of it with a little combover!

Stooges4x4 · 02-06-2008, 09:23 PM

Looks like some custom shiate!

yotaismygame · 02-06-2008, 10:30 PM

Doesnt look custom to me. Look at the door handle area that looks like its factory

e cliff · 02-06-2008, 10:36 PM

due to the pop up window on top i would say it might have been made by the company that made the early double cabs, i think they were in oregon??

cliff

ADD · 02-06-2008, 11:53 PM

the company you're referring to would be either custom fab manufacturing out of so. cal and oregon that did the custom cab conversions, or specialty vehicles corp. back east. both did the conversions. I own 3 custom cabs....

the window on the top is the same one that they use....but i have never seen a truck like the ones pictured above. I now have to have one

No, at least not very easy and no bolts.

No found no brand anywhere, Checked on the bottom of the dash, glove box, etc.

ocdropzone · 02-07-2008, 03:55 AM

that is definately a unique version...kind of fugly, but cool at the same time.
Looks better lifted...

matzell · 02-07-2008, 05:27 AM

Jeremy, Why is it you guys have all the cool trucks up there, trekers, double cab diesels like Brians, ect. It must be all the migrant workers that bring them in. Sorry I missed last weekend wheeling, I am getting ready for the trip out to Texas for the Roundup.

Rob

slightdrift · 02-07-2008, 06:18 AM

they look like turtles.......true crawlers i guess

benttoy · 02-07-2008, 06:53 AM

Looks like someone hammered a full size camper shell on to a yota

popaoneil · 02-07-2008, 07:46 AM

sorry no info. he sold it a couple months back.

Okiyota · 02-11-2008, 11:36 AM

I'd like to know what it is too, i've owned a Trailblazer, and i currently own a Trekker, been looking for info on the Wolverines, but i've never found any info or pics that prove they do exist....maybe....

ThreeCamels · 02-11-2008, 04:34 PM
