Sounds good man and keep up the good work. So what you doing next?

 

finish everything up and get it in primer hopefully before sept. Then winter time its going to get improvements. Rear shocks, check on doing the front shocks, and possibly a bag on bar setup instead of bag on axle.

 

Sorry for the double. Now that ive got the truck and the compressors running right together. My switches and comps arent working to well together lol. When comps are going switches have no power. My distrubution has 2 holes in it, ones for the compressors relays, then the other is for the switches. Should I just get rid of that all together?

 

Just a small update lol. 14' Steelies, with chrome beauty rings and moonies. Im in freaking love with how these look lol. They are painted gold, but thats how i bought them. Im going to put my snug on this week and get it tightened down and it'll set those off lol.

 

what are those? stock steelies with the trim and moons? or what?

looks pretty slick...

 

Stock steelies. Picked them up at a yardsale over the weekend. They originally was on a 60's mustang. Not to sure on the specs, but i know they 14's, and staggered.

 

man he makes 2wd fenders look good!

 

Dang bro those look good. I was going to go that route to but decided to go a different way. After you put your top on whats next?

 

I only see 2 links on your 4 link ?!? anymore pics of the setup ?

 

The lower links are forward....you can see the right side one in the 2nd pic.

 

yeah, the lower links are forward. Im going to change it around here in a few months. I done that setup so i could keep stock gas tank location, but in the process of that im laying lower 4 link tabs lol.

Dgerfan55, Im going to get it semi-cleaned so i can actually drive it to a mini truck show this weekend. Heritage 2010 in whitesburg, KY. Kentuckys largest mini truck show lol. But after that, trucks going to be under the knife again, and im going to do a legit backhalf and keeping up with the old school, im going through different old school paintjobs. Not sure what colors yet, but i do know that my wheels are gold and they will be painted back a house of kolor gold, and im going to do something goldleaf.

Cinna, I want 4wd fenders, but the 2wd's keeps it going with my old school style.

 

So thats the last picture that was taken of the truck. That was the sept 11th weekend and it was at heritage in Whitesburg, KY.

So that weekend was a very eventful one. Friday evening, I stopped with my buddies to get the beer and stuff for the show, and we were starting to pull out and something happened and my buddy in his Nissan tapped my ass. I was angled so, it caught me just right and busted my new tail lights that I had just gotten for free , creased the bed, and killed that curve in the bed below the tail light. I got some really good drags in that weekend, especially it being my first drags in the truck, so that years worth of work was worth it. Somehow I still placed 3rd out of 6 or 7 other toyotas.

So now im in the search for a 4runner bumper, as seen by some other topics ive started requesting for pics. This way, I can just cut out the bad section instead of having to fill the truck up with bondo, then if i get bored, I can just get 4runner bumper shavers to make it look like it's old self lol.

Then heres the last pic taken of my Scion. It's getting new shoes come income tax time and possibly going back all white and going euro style. Low, and fitment that's spot on.



Just had bought the wheels, and found out that weekend they had small little bitty dents in the middle of the cap. Easily replaceable.

 

snug tops ruled back in tha day....and seems they and tilt beds are coming back around...

 

I love a snug. If I didnt have my tank and compressors in the bed id do a tilt bed, but I guess raising the bed floor and doing hardwood flooring would be just as cool. I havent seen that done in YEARS.

 

Nice pics bro. looking good

 

updates.

So after notching my cab to clear the drive line, i finally lay completely out all the way around. I reversed my lower bars to be a full reverse 4 link. So im in the process of dragging my old tabs off lol. They throw mad sparks, after they are gone, im going to steel blocks.

I fixed the damage I got last sept on my bed. Fixed a lic box (still needs a little work), primed it Oxidized Red which looks brown lol, put a less wider wheel off a ford ecoline van on the rear since I was rubbing inside bedside =(, ive got 2 get to more tires for the back to match the front, 185/40/14's (smallest you can get in the states as far as i know), and done a false floor, still need to cap it and hide my gauge.



also have these beauties coming in this week.

 

Big Updates lol.

Im keeping to my old school styles on this truck and I know this isnt everyones cup of tea, but its different and im in loveeeeeeeee with the hubcaps lol. OH and solid back glass i got for Freeeee!










I also have a project that I need to do to keep my tank pressure hidden, it was all my dads idea and everything being used was my dads during his 33 years working underground.



I also put in some 96 Camaro Bucket seats. I got the driver side hooked up so all of its power controls work. Then I threw in a 80's model center console.

 

Dang long time no see. The truck is looking good man.
