Newest addition: '03 Taco

Hey guys, been trolling the Toyota forums for quite a while, trying to get a feel for which ones seem to fit. TacomaWorld has helped me out quite a bit already just in search info, so I figure I'd sign up. Anyways, I am 25 years old out of Colorado (NY originally), owned/still own a lot of old cars, but picked up an '03 Tacoma 4 banger/5 speed access cab as my daily driver when my Blazer (and possibly last domestic car) died for the last time. Here's a pic:




Bought it with 112kmi, right now sitting at 120-ish. Just picked up a custom made front bumper/skid plate and a set of sliders. Trying to decide between coil overs or OME springs and what to do with the rear, and seeing as this is the daily driver I can't afford to do too much work at once, but rather gradually grow into it. Anyways, just wanted to do an intro, you'll probably catch me asking previously asked questions (I have frequented forums for years and know the search function though!), and sometimes talking more about Datsun's than Taco's, but a vehicle is a vehicle and everyone has fun with them! Here's a shot of the two Datto's I have at the moment:

'69 Nissan Patrol:




Hope to gain lots of knowledge on the truck, I owned an '88 4Runner for a while before I bought the Blazer. Needless to say, I ran right back to my Toyota's/Nissan's!

Thanks for the welcome, you guys have it made here, so much info!

Idaholandho - Thanks! S30 cars have beautiful lines. A farm hand owned a '78 280Z when I was younger (in white no less), needless to say after I saw that @ 12 years old I needed to own one. SBC 406/T-56 combo is waiting to be transplanted...but the garage is currently filled with Tacoma parts:

Picked up some custom armor, an A.R.E. topper, and just did calipers/rotors/pads/drums/shoes/plugs/fluids/etc. Making a trip to Virgin, Utah for Red Bull Rampage here in a little while, gotta be prepared:



New (to me) A.R.E. topper, $200 local craigslist, owner was annoyed that wife lost the key, used it as leverage to buy different topper. Worked out fine:



More pictures later, or maybe it's best to start a build thread? Or at least start saving up photos so I can do a build thread at a later date, there's not enough progress to show yet...

 

Welcome!
