    Thankfully I learned general construction as a kid because my dad was a contractor. Granted I'm out of practice but if I ever need any help I have him and two uncles who can lend a hand/advice if need be.

    I am looking forward to getting a home and a garage/workshop I can call my own.

    Nice. But I think the blue may clash with the lunar mist...

    Nah, blue is the 'other' color in my build by default. King shocks and inchworm crawlbox are blue. :p

    On that note... while I clean up the engine, I was gonna repaint it. Thinking of black on the main block, and blue for the valve cover. :confused:

    Paint it the color of dirty engine oil so you never see a leak...

    Blue represents "hybrid" so it's totally apropos.

    But if you're asking my useless opinion, which you're not so I'll give it to you anyway, I'd go with a color scheme that more represents Toyota and not Chevy/Ford.

    This thing is still a Toyota, right?

    I'm sticking with the 3RZ for now. I already have it, and a lot of the truck has been built around that specific drivetrain setup.

    I seriously thought about it for awhile, but I don't think it'd pass the stupid emissions testing here.
