Ice Horse's 1998 Tacoma Long Travel/Hybrid Project

This thing airborne yet?

 

Beds back on. Even cleaned it. It's first bath.

 

Digging the paint scheme so far

 

Got that cop car look going on haha. It will all match eventually lol

 

I like it. Just need the black wheels with chrome center caps and some ditch lights. Maybe a cb antenna

 

no beanerness

 

Pff... I'm talking about a police interceptor look. You can't talk about chrome in fact I was thinking your new wheels but black with those TRD center caps you got

 

No chrome here babe

 

She's got the reverse police look.

Doors on a police vehicle are always white.

 

True, but I still like it

 

Atta boy

 

If you really wanna complete the look Lauren, you could get the police bull bar like me. Go rhino makes mine (same as the sheriff's here) and warn makes a nice one with a winch.

 

Brought it over to show my mom and a crazy lady tried to report it to the cops as an abandoned and suspicious vehicle. Needless to say the confrontation didn't go well. LOL We even put the tail lights in and it was plated. Just no bumpers lol

 

Lol ...wth? Some people

 

Not even five minutes after I parked it too lol. Walked inside and got a glass of water and Dad noticed there was someone walking around the truck. Mom has a really long driveway and I opened the window and could hear her screaming on the phone with the cops about how it has no plates (it does in the window very clearly), no bumpers, wires hanging down (my plate lights), and it's totally abandoned and suspicious. She didn't even come ask if it was ours.

We go out and ask if there's a problem with my truck and she gives us attitude "oh they're coming out NOW! Oh it's YOUR truck?" And repeats all the above to us so I pointed the plates out to her and she got flustered. Dads like "how about you mind your own business? All that stuff is brand new and was just finished." Her "oh don't you EVEN go there!" And walks towards us shaking her finger. We're like WTF? Essentially told her to go away so she left. Her husband wanted no part of it and walked off LOL

Thought we were done but she comes back an hour later and knocks on our door and says she's neighborhood watch and started yelling again so dad shut the door in her face. never seen this lady before a no idea where she lives in our neighborhood. I'm thinking she just got her neighborhood watch "badge" or whatnot yesterday and is out to be the savior of the world. Haha easily could have been handled by "oh this is your truck? I'm sorry!" But nope lol

 

Methinks you should handle this next time by removing your belt and laying down the ass whipping of a lifetime

 

Did the cops ever show up?

 

Damn man that's a funny story. I think she really wanted you to be her first bust.
