    Thank you. I appreciate it. I can safely say I have the only set of these wheels in existence in the world.

    Like the wheels a lot, paint job is great as well. I'd be so nervous driving that thing around MA where I live though, too many pot holes and such, body work would be destroyed in less than a day.

    Any story behind all the hearts? Seem to be different aesthetic from the rest of the truck.

    the hearts are just a little added touch. You see them on a lot of drift cars in Japan. I have seen here in California broken hearts and stars. Some times you see them on quarter panels and the roof. I have noticed that the hearts get a lot of questions. Conversion starter if you will.

    and as far as bad roads. I have air suspension so I can lift it up pretty high to drive. That and I only drive it once every few months. Now with covid-19 I can’t really go anywhere (shows) so it will sit even longer. I see it as an equivalent to a plastic model. I build it to take pictures and car shows. I have a super charger but never drive above 60mph. I baby it. It’s mostly original paint and I am the first owner. Well only owner. I have 96xxx miles. I’m also 43 years old so I don’t really hang out at car meets. I’m happy with the relationship I have with my truck. It stays in the garage 90% of the time.

    I like street trucks, just never done one and really don't live in a good area to try! Nice to get that little bit of info about the culture, thanks for explaining!

    Sounds like a real fucking cherry you have there. Especially with how you baby it, should keep you smiling for years!! :thumbsup:

    Those wheels came out awesome, I love using OEM stuff in custom methods but this is another level!! Those wheels are even from the same era as our trucks! :thumbsup:

    Just curious why do you use a narrow tire on such a wide rim, I would think you would want some more rubber on the ground being a supercharged SRunner with 10" wide wheels?

    Oh yeah, and are you thinking to add the Toyota center caps (pn 4260312730)?
