Ye olde ac knob mod.

Also got some jack stands for future major mods.

 

Just put in an order for a color matched grill, finally.

Got a sweet deal on a super white grille. I may buy some mesh or something for it. (Also I took those plasti dip eyelids off after I took the picture)

Reverse lights

Painted wheels

 

Haven’t posted in a while because I haven’t had money or time to spare for the truck. I’m gonna be going to trade school next month which will suck all extra mod money.
I was having some driveshaft issues (three bad u joints), but that got fixed today.

And I decided to get into mountain biking as a somewhat less expensive way of seeing the outdoors while on wheels.

Well the insurance company officially totaled her today. Really breaks my heart because I’ve had so many memories in this truck. She’s been places most 2wd trucks shouldn’t even be able to get to, she’s given me newfound freedom, and never had a single issue despite nearly 200,000 miles.


RIP Stormtrooper Tacoma

 

How has this lasted for you? I really wanna do this to mine

 

The paint lasted fine. The smell of spray paint lingered for a few weeks however.
