    3.0 Manual...Original Motor was rebuilt before I got it....282K Miles
    It's an extra toy so doesn't matter to me if I get a buyer or not. I am definitely not giving something this classic away.
    Price is yet to be determined but I have seen these rigs in this condition go for 12-15K, perhaps even more.....Most 1st Gens I see are all beat up

    I, too, have a white 1st gen like this. It is a 22RE 5-speed manual. Very clean and all original with only 175K miles. I am thinking about moving up to an FJ60 platform. Mine is also garage kept and basically a weekend toy.
    Check it out when you have time:

    I hope you got a Great price for your 89 4 Runner...prices are going up on the early models for sure...even Haggerty Insurance company had an article on 1st Gen's and the following. On my 1985 4 Runner DLX I was offered $16,000 from a dealer mechanic and I declined...I have also had notes left on my 4 Runner when parked from people interested...your right the early 4 Runners by those that know about them are well sought after...

    You should change the thread title to indicate that the vehicle is sold.

    Those first gens are so cool!
