Who's changed the color of their 1st gen. Tacoma ?

What's going on with that frame? I see two bed mount towers...

 

That's how the 3rd gen bed mounts. It's normal.

 

Looks great.
What are the details?
Did you spray it in your driveway?
What kind of paint?
What did you use for a compressor & gun?
Thanks

 

Great looking truck! 3rd gen Pickups are my favorite. I had one in Forrest green metallic (SR5) that I 3.4 swapped. It was such a well built truck. Just really solid. I should’ve kept it but I needed 4 doors.

 

I wonder if that rear rock guard would first a first gen taco. I’ve got some rock dings in my paint in that area.

 

I did mine in Cavalry Blue. Iphones and Galaxies change the color too much. Looks too smurf-ish in phone photos.

 

Looks awesome !

 

Thanks! Happy New Year!

 

I love a shiny taco, same to you

 

Went from faded Radiant Red to Ford Racing Red

 

I would personally do it. I’m new here and still getting used to the forum etc but I think some of these newer colors look great on these older classic body styles. My truck was originally white but it was owned by a master mechanic who had a buddy with a shop in Colorado so they painted it quicksand and then even added nice details with black bedliner on all fender flares and the lower body of the truck... didn’t cost them too much. The paint job isn’t perfect but hey for an older truck it’s worth it. Definitely stands out....
