Good Morning! Got me a project

Good morning everyone. New here but not new to Toyota trucks, I've owned 3 a 1987, 1988 and a 1993, would love to have the 88 or 93 back, but been blessed enough to recently be able buy a 1999 extended cab prerunner with the 2.7l I4 with 272k miles on it. I call it my Donkey because of a video where jelly roll was excited about a donkey he had bought, I was just as excited the day my toyota was delivered.

The truck wasn't drivable when I bought it because driver side upper and lower ball joints came undone and the truck had been sitting for 2 years before the dealer i bought it from picked it up. I plan on starting a build thread and just doing a little bit by little bit making it the truck I want. Obviously first thing first I'm gonna rebuild the front end.

Anyways enough yapping, just wanted to say hey. I look forward to helping and learning in the future. See y'all on the flip side.

good luck on that money pit !

 

and welcome to TW

 

Thanks, I don't think it's a money pit, but thanks for the welcome

 

Welcome aboard!

 

@buckhuntin-tacoma Thank you! Good to be here.

 

Don't let that chump get to you, they are all money pits. Welcome to TW

 

Welcome and good luck with the build! It's kinda nice that the front end is shot, gives you a blank canvas to do whatever you want and know exactly what's going on.

 

@Longbow25 Thank you! That was my thoughts exactly. First thing I'm gonna do is rebuild the front end, new brakes, flush the brake fluid, and get all the fluid levels straight and in good working order. I'm on a business trip right now but when I get back and start on it I will start my build thread.

 

@Moonrman Lol thank you for the welcome. His response kinda caught me off guard, but to each their own. Life is a money pit, atleast with this i get to choose where it goes.
