IAMBUMP Posted January 23, 2009 Report Share Posted January 23, 2009 I got an 85 toyota from a family member on the free so I started workin on it shortly after. It's been thru some rather drastic changes since then and it's becoming MY truck how I want it. I always wanted this exact truck, it sat behind my grandmas for 5 years or so until I finally got it. On to the pics... Tattered and torn.... after a lot of BS and curse words we got her home....we went thru hell n back to get her running and ends up all she needs is a tank flush and a couple fuel filters. front dropped a little bit little more back dropped wheel of choice....16" probe gt wheels. kickin it ol' school If you've been doing something for 20 years, does that mean what you do it right??? __________________________________ Want: 2x Phoenix Gold RSD65CS Comp Amp Undecided AA Havoc AQ 1200 knu wiring set scew lugs for all connections Alpine IDA-X303 2v preout --this goes under the seat.

Quality rides, coming out put together and not lookin like the kid fell short 100 bucks and couldnt cover the notch or something silly like that. Here's progress so far... Frame table.. parts...minus bags frame on the table ready to get started braced and locked down braced planted If you've been doing something for 20 years, does that mean what you do it right??? __________________________________ Want: 2x Phoenix Gold RSD65CS Comp Amp Undecided AA Havoc AQ 1200 knu wiring set scew lugs for all connections Alpine IDA-X303 2v preout --this goes under the seat.

Forevrbumpn Posted January 23, 2009 Report Share Posted January 23, 2009 I was wondering where this was heading I have a ritual called "terminator". I crouch in the shower in the "naked terminator" pose. With eyes closed I crouch for a minute and visualize either Arnie or the guy from the 2nd movie. I then start to hum the T2 theme. Slowly I rise to a standing position and open my eyes. It helps me get through my day. The only problem is if the shower curtain sticks to my terminator leg. It sorta ruins the fantasy.

IAMBUMP Posted January 23, 2009 Author Report Share Posted January 23, 2009 you guys are WAY too quick for me! it only allows a certain number of pics at a time! this is how far we are right now, and should be a good bit farther along by the end of the weekend. I will post pics as I get them. I hate insane tubing designs and crap so I am not doing all that stuff. We are making it functional, safe, and "understated". I don't care about getting featured, don't care if anyone but myself likes it, and just flat out building it strictly to my style. It will have tubing, but it will be almost a safety feature in a way. You'll see below. We are still designing inside the rails, and the upper link mount crossmember/driveshaft hoop. Tony should have the tubing section out back done tonite though. I will post that as I get them.... If you've been doing something for 20 years, does that mean what you do it right??? __________________________________ Want: 2x Phoenix Gold RSD65CS Comp Amp Undecided AA Havoc AQ 1200 knu wiring set scew lugs for all connections Alpine IDA-X303 2v preout --this goes under the seat.
