Single-Owner 43k-Mile 1985 Toyota SR5 4x4 for Charity

Description

OFFERED WITHOUT RESERVE

1985 Toyota SR5 – The Last of the Solid Axle Legends. The 1985 Toyota SR5 pickup represents a golden era of rugged reliability and off-road prowess. Beloved by enthusiasts and adventurers alike, this was the final year Toyota offered the solid front axle — a defining feature that cemented its status as an icon among 4x4 purists. 

Under the hood, you’ll find Toyota’s bulletproof 22R-E 2.4L fuel-injected inline-four, paired with a five-speed manual transmission and a dual-range transfer case. This powertrain combo, renowned for its longevity and simplicity, is as trail-ready as it is daily-drivable. 

With its angular lines, bold graphics, and famously tough stance, the ’85 SR5 was a cultural touchstone — even earning screen time as Marty McFly’s dream truck in Back to the Future. Inside, the SR5 trim brought creature comforts like a tilt steering wheel, sport gauges, and optional bucket seats, elevating the truck from bare-bones to just-right. Whether you’re reliving the glory days of analog off-roading or adding a piece of Toyota history to your collection, this SR5 stands as a rare and respected survivor from the golden age of compact 4x4s.
