    I am a new owner of a 96 extended cab, 2wd Tacoma. It has the big 6, 5 speed manual and cold a/c. Bad paint but not a speck of rust and none of the frame rot thing. I love it.

    My brother bought it new. He then bought a new 4 door version in 08 and used it as a second vehicle. He just bought another 2019 and knowing my feelings for the truck, called me and said come and get it! Thanks Bro!

    Hey Muddy - sorry to hear your brother is an AH, that's no fun.
    PennSilver - I would love to see the 96 brochure!

    And let' see if I got the forum picture posting figured out.....20190413_152850_HDR.jpg

    Photo posting - check.
    This little guy originally came with full wheelcovers but now only has two and I think they look silly so am doing the beater look for now. Trim rings, chrome lugnuts and hopefully some vintage (pre-taco) center caps forthcoming. I also need the left rear mudflap as it is MIA.

    Where did you purchase the trim rings? If you could send me a part number that would be great. I too am missing retainer clips on my hubcaps and can't find any. Hubcaps themselves aren't cheap and are difficult to find used. I may do what you did hoping it will be less expensive than purchasing new hubcaps. Thanks in advance!

    Give me a day or 2 and I will try and get a photo and other info. It looks 10 times better than with hubcaps.
