The 2nd gen with a built in smoker

I have a 2nd gen base taco. It has a lot of miles but I want to make it special and unique. I am a pretty young guy but I think every can agree if I pull this of it will be bad ass.

 

If you look at Forestrunnerfranks build he was a air tank where his spare tire went I want the same think but with a smoker. The idea is while hard to get to my truck is lifted so it will be a little easier to get to and smoking meats takes a while to just sit. So great for camping or tailgating.

 

I think everyone can agree that a built in grill is cool but I don't want to spend 3k on a smartcap. So this is the next best and cheaper way if it works.

 

Open to all suggestions. The plan rn is to get a old air tank a deep one off of fm and weld a great inside and make a flap it will be mounted upside down where the spare tire used to go the flap will open downward and I am thinking to small door locks to keep it shut.

 

I suggest working your punctuation.


Hahaha just teasing you bro.

 

I think I'd go for more of a hitch mount swingout. Well thought through design pictured here.

 

I had a Dodge with a built in smoker but less of what you are describing and more of a bad crankcase.

 

It’s great to be young .Back it the day I saved up over $ 13 to buy a cherry bomb muffler for my El Camino.
I would cruse the beach strip and drop the automatic v8 into low gear and it would sound awesome. I wish you luck and the same results. Great memories,

 

It has a trailer hitch, make a trailer mounted smoker or pizza oven. Could also just put a smoker in the bed when needed.

 

While true and being easier more effective and convent. This is hidden cool and badass also my spare doesn't fit so no point in keeping it.

 

It's your truck, but I wouldn't be comfortable having a fire box right next to a fuel tank and lines.

 

It appears as I have not thought this all the way through I will now be making a portable smoker out of a air tank.

 

Or you could make an ugly drum smoker like most backyard chefs who wanted to DIY their own appliance.

 

This is dumb and its only Thursday.
