Great taste! After I move on from my 04 V8 4Runner project I'll likely start over with a GX build or Sequoia.
What are the details on the one you bought?

AFTER MARKET! I know that space!
My 1st company was Installations Unlimited in NY. It was a one stop super store with every accessory for your car. We had an army of trained installers, ppl use to buy a car and drive right to our store
It was a new concept back in the day. We were 100% bootstrap and grew to 3 stores in 7 yrs. Lifts, drops, wheels, tint, roofs, Audio, Remote starters, and on and on. Yup, we converted P/U's to convertibles. What a shit show that was (we stopped after the 20th conversion).
My specialty was building custom competition audio systems. . We were so big, that I had exclusive distribution for Alpine, Pioneer, Sony, Blaupunkt, Orion, RockFord Fosgate, Precision Power, and several exotic speaker lines. My ex-employer tried to copy us and he went BK trying.
Another specialty I brought was I loved to build exotic showrooms. I cut a S10 p/u down the center and mounted high on the wall. The entrance of the sound room had the nose of a ford mustang exploding thru the wall. The floor was think glass and under the glass were dozens of power amps (all live and demo'able). When I sold to my partner, I was just breaking into home theater (back when lazer disc was state of the art).
Yea, I'm old.
Your mission is to get to my age talking more chances that I did.
