    Somewhere in here is the price for what was done to it. All in all we figure around $55,000 plus the cost of the truck to duplicate it.
    But it's not done yet.

    If I get transferred to California you are more than welcome to do what ever the hell you want to too either the FJ or the Tacoma. The rear spring hangers are a work of art. What you guys do with rigs is an inspiration to all. BTW did you get my pm about stickers?

    Actually, that 55,000 has the labor hrs that was put into the truck built into it. The parts was about 25,000 if you had to go out and buy exactly what I have here, and then all the time that was spent on it by different people. If you di alot of the work yourself you could build a truck similar to this for alot less.

    Minw was done mostly at night and on the weekends and the other one was done all on the weekends. The other trucks we build for customers always get top attention.
