1983 Dolphin - question


 

I've been looking for a Toyota motorhome for a while now and have
heard several things that concern me, like the 4 cyl engine and the
wheels in the back.

I've just found a 1983 Dolphin with 98,000 miles, 4 cyl, stick shift,
he's asking $5,500. I could sure use some advise.

Hi Vic. Welcome to the list.

Go to the main Toyota-Camper site and start
reading the Archives. There is much Dolphin
info here.

On the rear wheels, Be sure they have 6 lugs.
Again go to the Archives and search "axles".

On 4 cyl engines, The 83, 22r puts out only
96 hp. The later 22re is 116 hp. These engines
are among the longest lasting truck engines
ever built. A set of headers, and a Weber carb
will upgrade the 22r and give good performance.

If the machine does not have the 1 ton converstion
(Archives) subtract the cost from the price.

after you have you read the Archives, start asking your
questions. You have come to the right place.

Doesn't sound like all that great of a deal to me.

There is a 87 Sunrader on Rv trader online for $5,900. That one should have
the good axle and fuel injection. Do check the axle to be sure if you go for
it. It is listed as Sunraider instead of Sunrader. I always think the
sellers are not very into their rv if they don't spell it right. Sometimes
that might be a clue to a good deal.
