Not sure what happened... those pics are from the craigslist ad.
I know it changed hands a few times here in ABQ. A mechanic ended up with it and did some maintenance/repairs, then flipped it for a pretty serious profit... he bought around $3k, maybe less... sold at $6K. The buyer took it north to CO and here we are a few months later, back up for sale, but wrecked this time around.
I've been following it because I was hoping one of the owners somewhere along the chain would make me a deal on the roof rack. Looks like that is out of the question now.

I don't know..I'm sure you could get a pretty good discount on the rack now :reddance:
It just sucks I could have gotten it back and didn't, but I'm not going to spend too long moping. Just need to find the right truck and I'll do it again.

Oh, how the mighty have fallen.
R.I.P.
Sad as it may be... it's okay. You see, back when you betrayed your rig for a Camry, my rig was there to take up the spot of "Mr. Popular" for a good while.
:flame:That last one was below the belt - I'm sorry. You were top dog in your day, I mean it as a friendly joke.
BTW I'm still considering your text message idea... I didn't forget... very interesting proposal and definitely something I need time to think through. It would be a big job embarking on something like that, but the practice would be nice. Shit damn it's a lot of work! Better not be an 01 or 02!

Haha I deserve that one. Yeah think it over, no big deal if not I mean it would be a huuge undertaking if we went through with it, but I'm cool with going the more vanilla route to start off.

Agreed. RIP.
Your build and BlackStar inspired my black 4Runner build a lot.

How to ride it?
Hi,
Your build looks AWESOME.
I just left mine with a 9 wrap LC coil and LC shock yesterday.
From the Wheel hub its around 25.5 inch height. is this too much?
My question is once I will lift the front also is the car Safe to ride in hight speed? (60 miles)
and HOW you install a longer springs and shock on the front? with a 1.5 inch spacer I already cried my ass to try to fit it.
Thank you
