    well this is my first ever truck and i am loving every min of it. I bought this truck from a dealers auction a few months ago and was hesitant at first but found TW and saw all the cool things i could do so that's where it all began.

    Just curious, where did you end up getting all the parts for the 01-04 front end swap? I'm still looking around for a hood, fenders, and all the bumper components.

    Seeing this helps motivate me on my build. I have an 03 taco prerunner that I got on a sweet deal, but it had been rolled on drivers side, roll bars save it from severe damage but still a good bit of work.

    Looking good man!
