    See toyota should go back to a solid front axle on these trucks. They pull the babes. Cool pictures OP and congrats on your first toyota first truck.

    ETA: Dick Cepec too and belly button jeans. I won't wear mine there but they do look good on a trim girl.

    But the real question is.... did he tap that in the taco? Just checking to see if causality is consistent from the 1980's Tacos and todays.

    Found another photo. Seems like the only straight piece of metal on this thing after the rollover was the tailgate!

    Those are awesome pictures man. I love finding old pictures of the old man. I have one in my garage of my dad when he was in his 20s and first started working as a mechanic for Mazda.

    This thread just re-confirms my desire to put the old school 'Toyota' across the tailgate. Ordered it last week!
