Extras:

• Included is the original vintage yellow-colored jack and three-piece crank handle in brackets.

• It has an original Toyota license plate holder on the front bumper, ut since Kansas only requires one plate in the rear, t is open in the pictures.

• The new tires have less than 300 miles on them. They were installed 8-16-14 and are 50,000-mile warranty tires. There is also a very used spare tire whose white wheel matches the four on the vehicle. The tire does not match the four new tires on the Cruiser.

• There are towing bracket points on the front bumper and there is a triangle tow bar included, f desired by buyer. I have never used it so do not know its viability.

• There is a very solid tow hitch bracket on the back.

• It has an Ooga horn installed, n addition to the stock horn. It can be easily taken out by new owner if not desired.

Issues: There are no major issues, ut some things worth noting. It is missing the spare tire carrier. It does leak fluid, ikely from the steering box, ut hard for me to tell. The passenger side door window rolls down only part way. The left turn signal intermittently stays solid then blinks. It is missing the ceiling liner. There are two cracks in the black vinyl dash board, ne in the middle and one on the passenger side end. All the lights work including the license plate lights and the interior and speedometer lights, owever, here is an additional set of fog lights mounted on the front bumper which do not work. There is some smoke on start-up, hen clear running. It is missing the original tool kit under the driver's seat and now there is a fire extinguisher held in its place. There were the words "Ridge Runner"in decals on both sides of the hood, ut they have been removed. You can still see a very faint outline of the letters (see Flickr picture).

History: Manufactured in May 1976. I believe this Cruiser had two owners in Idaho before my family bought it in 1980. We used it for light on-road hunting for a few years then preserved it in a climate-controlled garage since 1983. I brought it to Kansas last year and now need my garage space for another vehicle, herefore, his sale. Feel free to contact me with any questions.
