    i've got the paint sanded off, started tacking in the fillers for the doors, keyhole, vent etc.. got my valance mocked up, and all the suspension welded up and tightened down. it should survive the trailer ride to parker now! :D

    That truck is sick looking. Hey just a thought but you should put one giant phantom grille to fill that in the rest of the way.

    i got it all from www.speedwaymotors.com

    the stock toyota spindles will fit the balljoints without being reamed. the supra spindles had different tapers and were smaller so thats why i reamed them

    the worst part was spending $160 on reamers that i used for about 10 minutes total lol. i tried local machine shops and nobody would touch em.. :brickknock:
