2002 tacoma race build

eventually yes. this truck has been placed on the extreme back burner with all these new costs that ive signed on for... makes me sad. im hoping to get back into cutting on this thing within the month, but have honestly lost quite a bit of motivation on her. ive got an f-150 waiting on a 12 valve cummins swap with a 6 speed that is probably going to take precedence over this one.

 

same problem with me, i lost all my motivation on it but, it will get done damit!

 

exactly! i know ill finish it... one day... thats all i care about... slow and steady will just mean it comes out that much cleaner and well thought out... nothing but time on my side right now.

 

Get to work!

 

bring me materials!!! i really only need about 10 more sticks of 1.75 x .120 DOM....

 

well looks like major decisions were made on the truck this past weekend. i am no longer attempting to keep this truck street legal while building. kicking all glass out of the truck and building a full aluminum dash. calling it good and running it low profile like a stadium truck on 35's. should be a fun a LOOONNNNGGG build. any that are following this, i would give up all hope of this being done for at least a few years.

 

You know thats how it shold be done anyway

BTW I put the stuff in an envelope but forgot to put it in the mailbox this morning, it will be on the way tomorrow for sure, thanks again

 

yea man no worries! i should have it turned around to you within 2 days of receiving your package. and i do agree that it is the correct way to be done, and now i can go as insane as i want because i dont have to deal with registration and smog.... anyone here remember the V8 yota i did? can we say another tacoma with 400rwhp?!! woot!

only difference will be this cage and engine swap wont grenade itself hahaha

 

Good luck man! I will def be looking for ride in it when its done

 

you got it man! hahah. hope we arnt all in wheelchairs and walkers before it gets done!

 

at the rate you're going.....................

 

shiiiitttt... i started this truck in a wheelchair... dunno what your talkin about... the rest of you guys are WAYYY behind the power curve hahaha.

 

excuses................

 

hehehe good old days!

 

somebodies sweet tig welded steering broke, haha

 

fuck yes!!! how did you manage that?! i dont even remember pictures being taken of that break. i do however remember the extremely high speed run down the wash with broken steering trying to get back to camp hahaha. words of that night were: "make it back before it breaks again" hahahaha

 

good times haha

 

darn right! we used to have some very interesting things happen out in oco. i cannot name one time where that truck didnt leave me damn near stranded. thats the bad part about taking on someone else's quarter completed truck and attempting to finish on a very tight budget and thinking wayyy tooo big for how shallow my pockets were. hahaha. thats why this red slut truck im taking my time on and doing it 100% my way. i can however say that every break down i had in that thing... was well deserved hahaha
