It's time for the second gens again!

As usual:
- One nomination or second (not both) per member
- If you're the first to nominate a member please post a picture and link to their build thread.
- If they don't have a build thread please try to provide a link to somewhere with more pics/info about his/her ride.

Good luck!

I nominate RiffRaff and his exceptional 2nd Gen build. He has been putting this together a little at a time, and it is REALLY looking sweet now! He's been with us for some time now, but he's fairly low-key, and I think his rig's been overlooked for some higher profile trucks. Now if I can just get him to post a unified build thread (hint, hint)!

 

[downpour11]

I'll second RiffRaff - nice truck!

 

[Footofgod]

I'll throw a nomination out there for the Green Machine. Just nice and clean and I love how it has stayed in the family.

 

[4Running Daily]

I third RiffRaff

 

[KidVermicious]

I don't think the Abomination has won one of these yet. I like the Abomination, it's pretty cool. As cool as you can expect a 2nd gen with a domestic motor to be, I mean...

Nope--third place is as high as it got. The bad part is I nominated at least one of those that beat it every time (LOL)! Maybe SVD will have better luck.

 

[mikebontoft]

I think RiffRaff has got this one, but I'll throw in a second for the Green Machine. it's like my twin but with all the stuff I want to do lol.

If I remember right, he no longer owns this truck.

 

[Mytoy4]

If I remember right, he no longer owns this truck.

Oh, shoot

 

[BucknutBob]

Oh, shoot

I do agree with you, though--that's a pretty sweet truck that someone grabbed off of him! Nice clean look.

 

[downpour11]

bummmmp

 

[mikebontoft]

I would nom someone but... I already seconded someone's so I'm stuck. lol.

hey it's not that hard though. If you haven't put up a nomination yet, there's a build thread compilation available! It will take a few minutes of your already wasted time doing something less wasteful. haha.

 

[BucknutBob]

C'mon fellas (and ladies, too), let's get some nominations going! I know this has proven to be the "forgotten" Gen, and always needs some prodding to get rolling, but there are some nice rigs out there to give a little respect to. Dig through the build threads, the photo threads, etc., and give someone a shot in the spotlight.

 

[gaterose]

I know this has proven to be the "forgotten" Gen...

Maybe if everyone would quit selling their 2nd gens!

At least 3/10 in the http://www.toyota-4runner.org/general-discussions/127936-master-build-thread-library.html have been sold!

 

[mikebontoft]

well... I'm not selling mine lol.

I know at least one of those that wasn't sold by choice, but by necessity. I'd love to still have mine, and I will have one again. Sometimes the timing of things doesn't jive with what we want.

 

[02_SE_Runner]

I would like to nominate [MENTION=86948]mikebontoft[/MENTION] build thread http://www.toyota-4runner.org/classic-t4rs/125383-roach-build-thread.html for the simple fact that it is more of a clean up build, and a "restore" then a crazy all out build right of way. Need to knock out the maintenance first eh?
