painted it with interlux brightside boat paint ,materhorn white with a gun.

its in good shape, i got all the old papers with it,theres no rust,it came out of montana with 6330 miles on it. no ware on the interior or engine,its sick clean.its a barn find.

 

nice!

mine will hopefully be in white paint within the next couple months

 

that V8 with the frame job's going to be white?

 

yeah. just a plain white. i eventually plan to have it painted the lexus pearl white, with silver leafed and pinstripped graphics going down the side. but i got to save a bunch of cash.. probably gunna cost over $5k. i just want a solid color until i can save up mainly.

 

hell, hit it with a white epoxy primer/sealer and let it ride until the chips stack up.

that fame and engine swap speak for them selfs,you could mop it in bird $#it and it would still be tight.

 

A nice solid white would look good on bernies hilux. An I really like your truck man good find

 

Damn!

Clean!

 

beautiful truck! so what are the plans for it

 

so effin clean!

 

Nice find and very clean. Whats the plans for her? Got any pics of the inside?

 

Mirror

WERE DID YOU GET THE MIRROR FROM?

REALLY LOVE THE YOTA

 

That is one hell of a cool looking truck, and it awsome shape good work man!


this makes me wish more people keeped older cars and cleaned them up really nice, or just keeped them clean and when i say that i dont mean the rare few that do but think only american cars are cool when old.

 

my plans are to put it on the road and drive it around on the weekends ,running around doing errands ,yard sale'in and what not .

i'm not going to rice it out and slap stickers on it ,or %$#& up the suspension.
rite now its got a leaf out of the back and a short block and that's enough.
it's got rear discs ,its going to get front discs too one of these days.

i'll throw some 6x9's behind the seat and put a old funky 2 knob push button am/fm radio in it maybe.

i been working on fitting a rear sliding window in it. shaving it and making shims in the frame.
getting the front window rubber in is killing me,i'm going to have to pay a auto glass dude a 100$ to slap it in.
rope soap wd40 hooks,all of that ,it's to damn hard.i'm going to screw something up.

 

the mirror was on it,its looks factory to me,its old.i took it off when i painted it and cleaned it up with wheel polish.

I JB welded some beer cans under the ugly front turn signal holes and gooped the holes over. and put some small rectangular trailer side makes lights in the front grill on the hood,they fit perfectly. put in a electronic blinker relay so they blink slow and steady cause the wattage was different.

this truck is in better shape then most 90's trucks.i drink beer and just stare at it mostly,it dont need $#it.

 

that is a great looking truck. i like what you've done to it. i'm not much for slamming trucks either, but a little lower on this would really make it sporty. just a thought.

 

been cleaning up the engine bay, the last few weeks

the color on the block called chrysler turquoise, but its a dead ringer for detroit green. it looks great to me. a good factory machine color

 

I luv the attention to detail, and just how cherry it is

 

its getting 4 wheels disc brakes, and the land cruiser master cylinder i have,the reservoir does not fit under the air cleaner. i and going to have to get some hoses hooked to it somehow for a remote reservoir ,or maybe there is some Jap sports car one that would fit? any suggestions

 

heres some more
