OMG I think something just had a party in my pants. That is a wicked clean resto, and I'm jealous.

FANTASTIC! would love to do that one day.

My favorite quotes from his ad...

Quote:
I love the father & son stories. I have two sons but only one can fit in this truck. One is 6'4" and has to fold up and bend over to ride in it. I told him he was built for a Tundra.
(from the Q&A)

Quote:
I'm not a sound guy and am content to just listen to the sound of the 4cylinder 20R.

Wow this truck is ridiculous! What incredible attention to detail. Only have a couple nits to pick tho. First off, if ur going to all the trouble of correct stock restoration, why put a crumby 'shittybilt' rear bumper on it? The original bumpers aren't that hard to find. Secondly, I don't like the black flair on the bed. That's not how these trucks came. But that's pretty minor. Lastly, this is a Hi-Lux! There was no such thing as a 'Tacoma' back in 1980. That being said, I WANT IT!!!
