Hey all, thought I would join up here and share my truck with you and thrive on the knowledge everyone has as well, a little about me, Im 28, my day job is being a mitsubishi tech and after hours Im a self employed fabricator. But who cares about me, you want to see the truck by now, so heres a couple of pics for ya On the way up to a show recently Along side the truck that towed me all the way then entered the show as well
Hey Guys, thanks for the welcome Its an 88, Ive done the full flip front (not finished, needs the inner structure fab'd up), Body drop to the pinch, bagged on firestone bags and SMC valves, the usual chassis mods, 1UZ-FE, 2 inch roof chop. Future mods are a matching tilt tray, either suicide or Homicide doors, remake the 4 link, pillarless doors, Shaving, and most likely more mods that I can think of haha. Unfortunately the green one isnt mine, its a good mates truck thats been given the 1UZ-FE attention that it deserves, it towed my truck and that heavy ass trailer up to the show without breaking a swet, then we gave it a quick clean and parked it next to mine for the show (unfortunately it was the only static truck and stood out a mile) Haha, I havnt got to the point of putting oil in it, but the front tilts up 90 degrees (even when laid out) which will make it easy to work on. Yes, thats all the factory sheetmetal welded together, but soon to be cut up and re-done haha. Good spotting on the engine too, its the 1UZ-FE with the factory auto behind it, hopefully it will get supercharged before its on the road too. When I get the time I'll post up a build, but the short version, its taken a couple of detours during the time its been in the build, it had a 4 runner body on it for a while but I had stretched it and needed another donor body to complete it and couldnt find one in good enough condition so I ended up going back to the origional plan and its working so much better because of that decision.
