    Been on the site for about a month, figured I should do the introduction thing.
    Started out messing with air cooled volkswagens. I've owned roughly 30 of those over time. Moved on to playing with Hondas about 2 years back. I got tired of hooking up a trailer to haul around me and my sons dirtbikes... So that's how I ended up here.
    Oh yeah, I've got what I refer to as a "lowering problem". I've dropped almost everything I've ever driven. **** just looks better lower.

    Here she blows!

    http://www.toyotaminis.com/forum/build-up-project-threads-25/xcab-turd-12437/

    She's rough! But it only cost me $900. I've got maybe another $55 in it so far.
    Just did the ol' 2/3 drop last night (i'll get some pics once it's level and where I want it to sit). I'd like to do 4wd fenders and a four runner bumber and valance. I'll see how that goes, I've got a lot of different directions that money needs to go.
    Oh yeah... it's an auto. And the trans is tired!!! I'd like to do a manual swap if I can find everything cheap enough.

    I'm hoping there may be some other people from this site in the area. I'm in southern NM (las cruces).
