    Hi guys, new to the forum here and have to say i have found a ton of useful information on here. Really great forum and group of guys.
    I recently bought a red 2001 Tacoma Ext TRD 4x4 from a friend of mine. I only have $2,200 invested in the truck and it was bought for a hunting/farm truck. The bed was bent to hell on it when i bought it so i looked around on craigslist and found one for $300 the bed i bough was off of a pre-runner that was the jade green color so right now im mixed on colors.

    This is my 3rd toyota so i know they are great trucks.

    So far i have
    Changed plugs and plug wires.
    New shocks in rear.
    Ordered new struts for the front (Friend gave me spacers for top of strut so going to try them for now.)
    Swapped the bed out.
    Ordered all new signals, headlights and corner lights for the front.

    Needs fixing:
    Think i am going to plastidip the entire truck but going to start with the grille first. i will post a picture later but wondering how it sticks to bondo. Got a few spots i have to touch up. on the bed i bought.
    Key stuck in the ignition and wont turn past acc.(Read several post and will make a new one detailing problem.)
    Needs a new driver side front fender
    New shoes.

    Like i said it is mostly for farm and hunting but i work 28 on 28 off so ill drive it alot to keep miles off my Chevy.
