    Hi guys, from Paraguay is a pleasure to be part of this big Taco family.. a few months ago buy a Tacoma DLX 4x4 3.4L Regular Cab 1995 in very bad shape.. the idea is to restore as much as possible and use that I will give is only for fun.

    This is going to be a long project and of course with a long travel suspension :cheers:
