What Have You Done To Your 2nd Gen Tacoma Today?

Installed my satoshi grill today! Would have my black headlight mod and projectors on but the M3 headlight restoration kit didnt work for me so now Im ordering a set of black JDM headlights from ebay. Will be pulling them apart and putting my D2S projectors in maybe next weekend with my 3in lift.

 

Brace yourself.... $2360. "77 with original 2F 6 cyl, 4 speed, and front disc brakes. A little rust in the normal places. Its needs a little attention here and there, but it drives, runs good, no smoke, no leaks except for a small one on the t/c.

 

Easy solutions to complex problems

 

I believe in keeping things basic.

 

Its actually from Colorado...Prestige Motorcars... and it's gone. I had it for a month, sold it for a customer. I had fun driving it and it looks so good I love the picture. All my current rides are Hondas, Toyota, Datsun and Ducati. My garage is filled with bikes.

My SUV(honda fit):

My 2 favorite ladies (CBR600RR Black Tribal and Ducati 999 BiPosto:


My Accord Coupe, Civic Sedan, Wellcraft 195SE, and Taco

My first ride, and still have it, runs like a champ with 476k miles on original motor, 74 Datsun PL620


Running out of places to park, especially because theres 2 more accords for the girls that rent my granny unit on top of the garage.

And this is one of my dads toys but for fathers day and his birthday I had his interior fully redone, every panel including headliner, got him foose wheels and tires, 2inch drop spindles, cross drilled/slotted big brake conversion, new carb setup. I have dumped more money on it than my Tacoma... Yet running out of places to park.

 

Do you do car sales or repair, love the lifts, so jealous. I want my own garage someday, always dreamed of owning a small car dealership or small motorsports dealer. Dreams, dreams, dreams.

 

Damn Shaggs, nice stable! Looks like you really enjoy your toys haha.

 

I'm a service consultant for Aston Martin, Jaguar, Land Rover... also certified just about every other brand over the years, and we carry Fisker, and dealer group also owns McLaren, Volvo, Toyota, Infiniti, Scion, and bunch of other dealers. The shop is pretty immaculate. I have been in the car biz since before I could even legally drive. I'm still kicking myself for not selling the Ducati and using it as a down payment on a Dodge Viper RT10 with 6k miles on it last year. I pretty much am always looking for the next toy. I spend more on Cars/Bikes/Boats than my house. I need to make room because I have someone who said I could pick up their 2post lift they don't use anymore for a steal. Always dreamed of having a giant garage with small living area, complete with lifts...

My current garage you can barely move in, multiple sets of wheels, tires, seats, exhausts, intakes, just sold off a bunch of HID setups. Really need to take a week off to clear it out and craigslist a bunch of stuff. already got rid of couple engines, oscilloscope, line bore, tow bars. But I live at work.

 

Wanna trade for a day. I forecast weather for the Air Force. lol.

 

Do I get to ride in a fighter jet?

 

I gave up on assembling my own links due to cost (total BOM came to almost $300). Instead I installed Deeza heavy duty greaseable sway bar links. Review thread here: http://www.tacomaworld.com/forum/pr...eza-heavy-duty-greaseable-sway-bar-links.html

 

nope. lol.

 

Drove it, and got some nice pic's of it.







These pictures are from Castle Gardens, Wyoming. Beautiful Sunday drive

Spent Saturday color matching the grill, emblem and repainting light covers.

 

Matt, looks good! I took apart the center console and cleaned the coffee that I dumped in it the other day. Then decided to clean the whole truck up! She is happy. I guess tomorrow we shall go find some mud or water to play in..

 

'Dat Grill .....

 

yea that is a 2005 evo rs.

yea they are ccw classics. 18x10 on 285. had the front fenders rolled to the max and rears were rolled and pushed.

wud up brandon, i see you got your tacoma. what are you going to do to it? now we just need austin to get a new one.

 

serious... grille, emblem/toyota logo, and black housing headlights, really makes it pop on white

 

Took 2 inches off the mud flaps and they still look to long!

 

Unfortunately, short mudflaps don't work, as most of the spray is kicked up right near the contact patch. When I installed my HuskyLiner flaps (3" shorter than stock), I got a muddy rooster tail coated on my rocker panels.
