truck looks great. i love the bike shot. i would personally run a taller overall tire to fill the wheel well more, but i know that means more suspension drop needed. looks killer either way. hopefully i see it when i come down to that SD toyota show somebody posted about in june.

 

Wow, I loved the build. The truck came out great.

Where did you buy the carb?

 

So had some issues. Clutch went limp and had to get a tow. it looks so funny haha. Trying to get it fixed asap. Doing master and slave first hopefully that will be it!

 

Any updates? Because of this build i have been trying to find a similar truck for myself.

 

Yeah, I applied for a job internship that requires far daily driving in uncharted territory and the truck wasn't suitable for that being how low it was. Sold it to a fellow tm'er and he has started up on the project where I left off. Last I heard he's squeezing 15x10's with a negative offset on them and restoring it piece by piece.

 

That sucks you had to let it go. Hope to see you find a new project soon. When is the new owner gonna post up?

 

<--- New Owner.

 

I've gone through this thread about 3 to 4 times now. I know its sold but does anyone know what air shocks he used in the rear?

 

Monroe 804s.. There for 84 vw jettas just swap the bushings and you're set.

 

Thank you! Thats crazy thats the car I sold to get my truck was a 84 Jetta gli. By swap the bushings I assume you mean from the stock pickup shocks to the new airshocks, right?

 

Yes...

 

Been FOREVER since an update. Sold it for a while. Bought it back for the same price I sold it a few months back and have been putting as many hours in it as I can since then.

Here's the truck as it sits today...

 

Wow what a nice truck you got there hoshposh. Those rear fenders are looking prime. Gotta love 15x10s

 

Cool to hear you brought it back!!!!

 

Crazy nice truck. Did you sell this one to jericho? Plaid interior right? And where did you get those eyelids?

 

Where did you get the bed fenders? Looks amazing

 

Thats the one! Eyelids are for a VW bug. got em from a VW store for about $10

The bed fenders are stock 79-83 yota' 4x4 fenders.

And got this going on next

 

Cleaned up the engine some. threw on the valve cover and the new pacesetter header

 

Lookin good!

What difference did the header make? Any power or sound difference?
