    Can't go wrong with the T4Rs or Tacomas...though I (or we) might be biased.

    Appreciate it man! I figure it'll be about 2-3 years to get it exactly how I'm envisioning it. For now, addressing the more functional side before aesthetics.

    This is sitting in my neighborhood collecting dust. Should I find out if it's for sale? :)

    It looks fucking great! Aesthetics don't even need to be addressed. ;)

    As far as T4R's and Tacos; I developed a kind of confidence in the '03 that I am just starting to have with the '19. After years of just changing the oil and driving it, it seemed to become more than just a vehicle. It took me, my GF, dogs and cargo everywhere, without ever failing. It was just a workhorse! I can only hope that the '19 fills its shoes!

    I wonder about it every time I drive past. Would be a great project!

    True! Money talks.

    It's definitely gonna be a fun project that's for sure. Gonna try to get it running, engine may be locked up, won't know until I start tearing into this weekend and once we have that and the rest if the drive train done then it's on to the body and frame. Safe to say there's gonna be quite a bit of welding and cutting involved :sawzall::welder:

    To be fair the frame is actually a pretty good shape. The welding comes in the play because there are no floor pans.

    The frame could use a good wire wheeling to be fair

    Both look like fun projects. I need a new garage or more driveway space so I can start a fun project :( Like a nice SAS 3rd gen 4Runner or something.

    I want to find another 80s or early 90s pickup thats an Xtra cab so I can have a project. I'm a bit too tall to drive the 89 :anonymous:
