    Last spring I bought a salvage Tacoma and rebuilt it I had a lot of fun doing it and learned a bunch. But with family and everything I decided I wouldn’t do one for a while again, but now I’m getting that itch. Should I do another this time I really want a long bed.

    The picture is what it looked like after I sold it and the guy bought it put tires and wheels on it. I did everything else the bumpers painted to match are CBI.

    Not sure of its "salvage" condition when you started, but looks like you did a great job restoring it! :thumbsup:

    everything i did myself besides the back window and the painting, it was actually pretty nice because there was very little inner body damage
