    That's incredible. I can't imagine the expertise it took to pull that off. That's easily one of my favorite trucks on TW.

    Amen, I'd love to do a rebuild just like this, but it's so far outside my skillset. The best I can hope is that lose_money puts me in his will.

    Beautiful looking ‘83. Question about the 4Runner rims with the 33/10.50R15. Did you have any fitment issues with the solid front axle and the center bore diameter on those 15x7JJ-8 wheels? Did you have to use any wheel spacers? Simply beautiful :)
