2006 Gordita Blanca V8 4x4 "Penelope" Build Thread

It is too bad. One thing to check, I've heard that there are a couple of very small fuses somewhere there on the back. Not sure if they are fuses for the entire unit, or amp, or what, but might be worth a look.

 

Yeah I'll check em out at some point. At least the guy at car toys have me a good price on the floor unit and they double checked all my work haha plus now I have two different spare Toyota radio harnesses

 

You're going to build a 2nd gen Tacoma from the radio out.

If it were closer to Houston and I knew it was a 97-98 I'd make an offer on this junker. Just needs a supercharger and some long tube headers

Or if only this were a manual

Can you feel it? It's coming.

 

Stop touching me! I am sober, and I will remember!

Dayum looks good

 

Thanks bro. I have a delima now. I want a grill guard on it but that'll have to wait for more funds. So now I gotta figure out when to come pick it up with my crazy schedule and the shop is over.an hour away. Then I gotta figure out how to install it with little to no help.

 

it's in my possession now. Still need to get the light tabs welded on and maybe some recovery points before paint. But the factory ones fit with the bumper so I may just throw shackles on em and call it good for now. At least until it's time to remove the bumper again to add the grill guard and winch. Unfortunely OT has been cut at work til 2020 so my funds dried up prematurely. Ideally I wanted to have everything completed and installed the day I picked it up. Sometime before November. But life happened. So now I'll just make due and revisit the bumper accessories including LEDs, in 2020.

She's all ready for her new dress

 

Hells yeah​

 

Still needs some minor adjustments it it's on there. The kit said to reuse the factory bolts on the sides but that must e been for the early steel bumpers as my plastic bumper didn't even attach to the side.of the frame. Anyone know what size those bolts are??

 

Total seks bro

 

Thanx dood

 

I had the shackles on the factory tow spots but I just realized while attaching my license plate, that there's holes for shackles between the mounting bolts haha so I moved em. They look much better now. I'll have to remove the bumper to permanently mount the LP so.zip ties will do for now.
