Figured I start an official build thread but most of my pics are in my mid build photo shoot in this forum.

Just a few pics of the Suicide Doors drop tag roll pan I installed a few weeks ago, havent had a chance to get
pics of it, so I went out and shot a couple. Ive also been working on fiberglassing the radio bezel since it
was destroyed by the previous owner. I used the felt//resin technique with some bondo for shaping. The pics of these
are pre-shaping stage so it looks awfully rough and messy. I made it to where the head unit will actually tilt up and towards the driver about 5 degrees
either way. Later this week Ill work on shaping and finishing that up. Also took a pic of the 4-runner gauge cluster
I scored at the Louisville Pull-A-Part about a month and a half ago. Still have to clean this up and install as well.
Bought it since my truck doesnt have a tach and I really like knowing the engine speed.
Hope you enjoy the pics and thanks for all the comments.












And a couple of teaser pics of the monster Im currently building (this will be my road course car)

 

NIce looking truck and car. WWhats next to do to it besides finishing up the guage and the sterieo? keep it up man

 

nice, reminds me of riding in my friends Grand nat, it was a slow nat though, only ran low 11's..

 

Next is a little more body work on the passenger side bed and hood, then paint (Satin Daytona Blue Pearl) and a Royal Blue Hibiscus hawaiian pattern//tan interior install and then maybe some engine mods to add a little more power and reliability. Oh, and the 92 Chrome bumper and valance install and a new windshield.

 

Sounds good cant wait , make sure to get lots of pics of you doing all these mods.

 

dam thats a bada_s Regal

 

Just a quick update..

Went ahead and purchased my bumper brackets from FBI today as well as my seat covers and floor mats for my Hawaiian themed interior and the bumper turn signals for the 92-95 bumper. I picked up some more body filler and supplies today and got to work a little on the driver side today. Im basically filling in the indentation around the wheel wells and the seam between the bottom and top of the bedsides and then a little work on the hood. A new color, still blue, but it will be a surprise, has been chosen. Wont be long until its ready to shoot. Also found a place with colored roll-on bedliner so I can get a tan hued bedliner instead of black which will match the scheme a lot better. Stay tuned, Ill have some more pics up on Thursday at the latest of the smoothness. I estimate about 3 weeks til paint.

 

8-23-2010 Update with Pics

Well, just a little update on the 'yota build up. I recently purchased a lot of goodies to finish this thing up.
I installed the 92-95 front 2wd chrome bumper with the FBI brackets today, installed the front Pro-Comp Toxic shocks, installed
the new ACC doeskin carpet, fixed the seat slider, ran wiring for the amplifier install, installed new Sony headunit, installed
new H4 lights, installed new clear bumper lights, wired new sockets for the bumper lights, previously smoothed the ridges around the wheel openings(still need a little more work),
and thats about all I did today and last week. I ordered a chrome valance and they shipped me a black one, so I had to ship that back, also
ordered some safari tan roll-on bedliner which was leaking and exploded all over the shipping container when I opened it, so have to
wait until Thursday for the replacement on that. I have a set of Sony X-plod 6.5" Components coming to be installed in some door pods that I purchased as well.
I purchased some light desert sage (beige//tan) burlap to cover the dash and door panels in as well. I also purchased the paint and that should arrive later on this week
as well. Shew, enough rambling, I took a few pictures of the progress, still have a lot to do. Tomorrow, I should get the door panels and pods installed
with the components and get the rear shocks installed and then do away with the round bar that dangles off the frame and drags everwhere. Then some more body work on
the passenger side and hood. Here's the pics, going to be a fast build up from here on out, looking at two to three weeks until completion. BTW, I havent had a chance to sand the stereo
bezel down yet, so dont hate on me too much lol.

 

Looking good man, lovin the front end. Need some clear corners. Thats my 2 cents but all and all its nice and cant wait for more pics. Oh ya sand that thing down already.

 

Some quick interior pics 8/30/2010

Painted the dash, installed my new steering wheel and hooked up the components in the door as well. Also installed the new seat cover. Theres also a pic of the body work that I have been doing on the passenger side. Just need to sand that part down, throw a little skim coat on and then spot prime and block the entire truck. Looking at possibly next week or the week after for paint.

 

Nice job it looks real good inside. Where did you get that steering wheel? How much? Keep up the good work. What color you going with?

 

Steering wheel is a Dyno aluminum spoke tan wrap paid 30 dollars shipped off ebay for it. Color is Voodoo Blue, a 2007 Toyota color.

 

Wanna sell it? LOL Hey how about you get that darn thing sanded down already? LOL
