    Aloha!

    Been lurking on the board for a few months now and it has come part of my daily social media checks lol.

    Soon to have it in my possession and start my (probably slow) build on it. Some fixes/mods I plan on getting to. I'm sure this list will grow once the truck is in my possession and have more time with it.
    • New washer fluid reservoir
    • Replace passenger door handle
    • Replace passenger seat belt (no click/lock female end)
    • Diagnose non-working horn
    • LED interior upgrade
    • HID projector retrofit
    • Fix body cancer
    • Paint
    • New suspension
    95 Tacoma 4x4 M/T w/ about 46K mileage.

    How she looked when we first picked her up:

    What she currently looks like:

    I'd leave the lights alone, messing with electrical is a quick way to ruin your truck. But that's like, just my opinion man :thumbsup:

    Otherwise sounds great and nice pickup!! I am having the photos not load though, not sure if I'm only one.

    Driving over volcanic rock isn’t too bad. Depends on the type. There is smooth to very sharp. Premium is around $2.39. Pre-COVID it as around $3.49
