    Hi guys and girls. I was directed here from Facebook. I honestly didn't realize forums were still a thing. Lol. Im here to look for tips and tricks and just general advice about these great little trucks. My truck is a 79 SR5 short wheel base that I purchased from the original owner about two years ago. Its since been blocked in a back corner of my property and I haven't been able to do anything with it. Today I was able to sell the last vehicle that was blocking it in and I pulled it out to get started on it. My goal for right now is just to get it running and driving and get it a little closer to the ground. Im keeping the patina and only fixing the dents I can fix without hurting the paint any more. A little further down the road and Ill look into putting it on air and eventually doing a body drop on it. But that won't be for some time since its one of three other projects I'm trying to finish. Thanks for having me. Can't wait to check this place out. 10300232_10152508151889487_1348086429660421949_n.jpg 1604847_10152512575409487_185516391743795288_n.jpg 10300232_10152508151889487_1348086429660421949_n.jpg 1604847_10152512575409487_185516391743795288_n.jpg 13102780_10154169157009487_8131633573864213997_n.jpg 13096170_10154169483549487_4887772628068851319_n.jpg 13102752_10154169483304487_8468095157371044767_n.jpg
