getting started on this as soon as the standard cab gets done enough to make it to sc8pefest,hope to have both of them there in primer.....

Dang that truck went from fame to shame!

Cool your going to bring it back, and for your wife! good luck with it!

lol kind of reminds me when I bought my truck but it wasn't that bad. Can't wait to see the build up man. That's cool your wife is into it. My gf doesn't really understand the whole truck thing but doesn't mind me doing it

Man, that's painful to look at. Good luck with the new build, can't wait to see the outcome.

why even use that truck lol. why not just a stock tacoma? that thing is bad! how did it get that severe?

he just tore it down to re do everything in the midst of some hard times and got burnt out on it,I almost got everything I need for it,this is not gonna be like my 12 year ongoing project the standard cab....hope to be a 2 week or less everything but paint build,no shaving at all,just a sheetmetal bed floor,anybody know of a good place to get some mandrel bent rails?
