so rad man. hey just outta curiosity what did you do with the original grille?

 

thanks david. it's quieter now with the flowmasters on but my camera doesn't pick up the sound very well.

thanks. the stock grille is already called for. it's going to 74hiluxproject on here.

 

if he falls through, holler.

 

This build keeps me motivated!

 

so the truck is all wired and ready to hit the road. just gotta get it registered, and i'm figuring out who i'm going to use for insurance since i want $15k coverage on it for now.

the dead bulb needs to be replaced



my dog had chewed the stock tail lights and the wire was gone right at the base. i took the light sockets apart and soldered new wires in



my aftermarket harness doesn't have seperate turn wires, so now brake, turn, run all goes thru the center red lense

 

nice.....get that lady on the road.

 

Loving it!

 

tubing to build the bed frame is bought. need to order the 18 gauge steel to build the new bed skins

 

nice work

Nice work once again. You put a lot of time into your projects and it shows. I saw this VW on a web site and thought how nice that fold down bed side looked. If I ever get as good as you with metal work I might just go for it.Best Viral Pics of The Week Compilation - Galleryyou gotta go thru those pics to find it.

 

the bed mod would be fairly easy on a 69-88 yota since they have the 3 piece bed sides and the split is at the floor line.

 

it takes way to little to lay down the rubber lol



and i sourced some donor bed corners from a nissan 720



i removed the 720 body lines

 

Thats gonna be a nice little mod

 

Cool mod, any particular reason you went for a 720 light?

 

thanks

i'm actually shaving the light. it just had the correct overall shape of what i needed except for the bodylines lol

 

getting the bedsides together





made a piece that allows a stock looking radius to the front of the bed



removed the old wheel well bodylines



they'll be fit into the new bedsides



i like the look. it's still strange to me since i'm used to seeing the rail.

 

DAMN that's nice! You continue to raise the bar!

 

Tht looks sexy as hell! I need to find one of these old yotas around here. I see a feature in the future

 

As many others have done.... i just read this entire thread. Your truck is ****ing rad..... you need to post some videos of you doing donuts....

 

damn that truck is sooooo sick
