Thats a hell of a "more to come" list. Awesome start Derek

wildjerseyfirefighter · 05-18-2009, 09:26 PM

thats awesome..subtle, yet badass.

The only thing I see being odd, is you would buy a prerunner, and convert it to 4wd..It would be cheaper for you to trade it in and get a 4x4. Unless your doing an SAS while your there..then you would be my ultimate hero.

Neubs · 05-18-2009, 09:27 PM

Looks great Derek. You are well on your way!

If I can make it look anything like the SEMA Taco, I would be all in.

But like I said before, I will have put so much time and money into this thing by the time I get around the converting it, that I wouldn't want to see it go!

How much is the cost of the conversion to 4X4 gonna cost you? Sweet ride man I definitely need to go on road trips looks badass!

oldtacomaguy · 05-19-2009, 04:06 PM

Thanks! Probably somewhere in the $5,000 range I'm guessing.

Nice truck, man!

Looks like you have more fun planned for it.

wolfpack_5150 · 05-24-2009, 06:39 PM

Nice writeup.......One helluva to do list, Do you know if anyone makes a custom BBK that "borrows" parts from the tundra?

Thats what we used to do with our maximas, we figured out that cobra rotors worked with 300zx turbo calipers and a custom bracket. Frankenstien'd but it worked.

Pster · 05-24-2009, 06:52 PM

Awesome blossom. When I get to be 88, I'm having both feet lashed to the accelerator so I won't have to make any of those tough brake/gas, brake/gas decisions.

Derek, Nice start to a great build. I love the blow-by-blow play of everything you've done and even the places you've gone. I should follow your lead and do one as well. I just need to find myself bored first.
