    Hey guys,

    Some of you may know me over from Toyotanation, but since I'm height challenged, I thought I'd drop in and check the scene here.

    My current project is a 87 Toyota Hilux.

    Cheers

    Welcome. Who hit your truck with the ugly stick?

    I'm joking. It has a lot of potential. It's going to be fun.
