As quoted by many! a cheap e9 is a very expensive car..
Just a back story to the Tundra so hopefully you all will know where I'm coming from; After rebuilding 4 or 5 e9's I thought I had a clue what I was doing so I broke the cardinal rule and purchased the tundra without visiting her in person. The seller was honest and very straight with me regarding the amount of visible rust and what he thought was the extent of the rust -and through the pictures I felt that it was not that extensive. I took delivery of the car and to be sure there are many good things on her. She's a 2800, 4-speed, non- sunroof, has all the pieces... but, as an extra bonus, it has RUST. This car will need... New rockers, both sides, I think the floors are pretty good but the front fenders also need to come off to do the job properly as there is some rust in the underlying areas. I could rebuild this car but it would take a bit more time than I want to spend on her. If I don't sell her then I will rebuild her but I really don't need another e9. Also, the engine needs to be rebuilt as it's quite stuck at the moment. It's a very original car, the dash and wood are excellent and I would strongly suggest whomever wants it come and inspect it. In my opinion this is a project for someone with deep pockets (and they'll probably break even) or someone with know-how, friends who can help and a bit of free time. price is 17k and I have collected some of the new rocker pieces for her. Some pics attached.
