    Hello everyone! This is my first build. This truck is my second Tacoma, (I previously had a 2002 ext. cab that my dad needed for work.) The truck is a 3.4l 6cyl automatic, the color is Cobalt Blue Pearl. This truck is far from perfect, but I plan on keeping it until it dies, as its value is low due to the body. I bought it on July 13th with 204,500 on it, and since then I've put about 2500 on it, as it currently has about 206,950, (Sept. 30th). Well, lets get into this!

    Mod list:

    Exterior:
    CB antenna (really rare, I know:rofl:)
    Cap
    Misc. Painting; (Grille, Bumper)
    Box in bed of truck (pics to come)
    Window Visors
    Interior:
    LED backlight mod (converted to blue)
    Shifter light conversion (also Blue)
    A/C Panel light conversion (yet again, blue.)
    Pioneer Radio
    Uniden CB

    Mods to Come:
    Front bumper; custom built by my father and I, stay tuned!
    New Shocks and Struts
    Bug Shield (stupid rock chips :mad:)

    This will be a slow, but hopefully interesting thread! If you have any questions feel free to ask! Thanks for reading and enjoy!

    Updates! I've been busy but much has happened in recent weeks, and I plan to keep this more updated now since I'm finally getting a job again.
    10/1/15-Finally added a bug shield, major improvement to the front end in my opinion.

    10/6/15-I mounted the CB in place of the Ashtray, its nice not having my passengers kick it anymore..

    10/9/15- NEW BUMPER! My dad and I made it from scratch. I'm extremely satisfied with the outcome. IMG_20151012_202623_zpslj0fkgvu_50ad9893e12ecf37977452c205459ea0e65870c9.jpg
