    well i now own my 6th toyota (3rd toyota truck) went and picked it up earlier today. got her into the garage and within 1/2 hour of starting on it i had the fenders, hood and doors off. tomorrow the bed will be coming off. i will be using this thread as a build up thread and will be posting pics as things get done, which means i will probably have gray hair by the time this thread is finished LOL.

    no updates on it because it is out of my garage now (i bought another Tacoma instead of working on this), a friend of mine now owns the truck. he has it stripped down to bare frame and is in the middle of building a 3/4 frame for it and setting it up for hydraulics.
