T4ROTM November 2012

[gaterose]

I hope this isn't out of line but it's the end of the 2nd and Callum hasn't posted one yet so I figured I would get the nominations open. Hope you don't mind Cal (or anyone else).

This month is the 2nd Gen guys turn up, so let's do some nominating.

ONE nomination per member, a nomination can be
- a member nomination another member
- a member seconding someone elses nomination
- a member nominating himself/hersel.

All are OK as long as you only do ONE.

If you're the first person to nominate a member please post a picture and link to their build thread.

Alrighty, it looks like another "classics" poll that needs a jump-start to get going. I dug up a number of rigs that are pretty sweet, but since we can only nominate one, let's see if we can get some love for Footofgod's fine build (found under "S.S. Minnow Build Thread"). I've followed this since he first showed up on the forum, and he's made some great mods over these past months. While I can't nominate them, some other noteworthy member builds are "mpleitez", "Jonny", and "4runnin83", to name a few. "DreadRunner90", a newb, purchased a ready-built beast, as did "jetfire"--both are pretty outrageous, but I wanted to nominate a member-built truck. Best of luck, Bill (Footofgod)!

 

[gaterose]

Since no one else is making moves I wanna nominate BucknutBob.

Don't think this is a build... but I guess it'll work

[Footofgod]

Thanks for the nod Bob!

This is an easy choice for me. I'll nominate MPleitz and his "Sputty". I got to see this thing in action first hand in Moab. Sweet ride!

I don't feel you stepped over the line at all. I (as well as others I'm sure) appreciate your initiative.

Sorry to all for not posting on schedule, but you know how things can get in the busy seasons.

 

[Casper421]

I'll nominate Nates beats! project 1 ton

 

[Mytoy4]

Thanks for the nod, Gaterose! Yeah, I never made one overall build thread, but you picked the most extensive part to feature. Looks like we're rolling with nominations now--just needed to break the ice, I guess.

UPDATE: For a more complete build thread, I consolidated some stuff in "BucknutBob's Build".

 

[SV_Dude]

This one is going to be tough! There are a lot of nice 2nd gens!

 

[KidVermicious]

Bill, Bob, and Nate are no brainers. Since they've already been nominated, I'd like to add mikebontofts "Roach". It ain't heavily modded yet, but it's clean ... http://www.toyota-4runner.org/classic-t4rs/125383-roach-build-thread.html

Agreed! That thing is going places (except Moab, LOL).

Bump

 

[Footofgod]

[NorCalBorn]

I nominate NorCalBorn. I couldn't find a build thread, but here's a pic

:nicethread: FWIW my build's likely in the wrong part of the forum? http://www.toyota-4runner.org/classic-t4rs/120935-1995-4runner-2wd-a340-auto-4wd-r-150-build.html

I think I recognize that pic you used from somewhere, can't remember right now though. :banana:

 

[NorCalBorn]

This thread just made my day, :bigok: , especially since we're gonna keep it rather than sell/trade-in for a 4wd Taco DC. The people I was gonna nominate are already up above this post, which makes it even easier.

Me :driving: before the armor became a necessity.

Sorry I looked, but wasn't able to locate it. Thanks for posting it up!

No problem, just asked SV_Dude to move it where it must belong if he has the ability to. I'll happily 2nd MPleitz's build.
