You're the second person thats asked now. Lol. Next time I have it outside I'll take a picture of it donked out. I can't get a good shot in the garage.

seth, ive been following this build for awhile now and havent said anything but great job man, the truck is sic, and your doing it for the right reasons, i know pople that spend an ass of money just to have there stuff on covers, good job on the color and the fab work, ive been doing paint and body work for along time now and yo just dont see many people your age willing to put in the detail and time like the all grade 8 hardware or fabricating the entire front suspension, great job once again im lookin forward to seein the body back on that beast....keep it up

Thanks man, that definitely means a lot. The support all you guys have given is awesome.

one hell of a truck but i have two questions, will it ever drag? and i have an 85 toyota shiter and i mean shiter i was wanting to do a 5 or 6 inch body drop just so i could drag it and see what happens. problem is toyotas have a really tall block(or at least it looks like it). how easy do you think it would be to swap in a 2.2 from an S10? the point of that is so i dont have to run a wicked cowl hood or no hood at all. Not tryin to steal your theard just after watchin this build i have decide you know more about toyotas than most people. That's a really nice project though, good luck. and lovin the idea of the rims.

I have no idea on the S10 motor idea. You can keep a stock hood with a pretty large bodydrop. To the doors actually.

And it will probably drag here and there, but I'm never going to rail it. Not really into fucking it up after all the hard work.

i dont blame you on not draggin it, im different than most i like to tear it up. wierd quality but it's fun until somethin breaks or drags off. thanks for the info.

Someone asked for a lifted picture, soo, here it is donked out.This is 100 lbs all around, about 10 inches at the bottom of the frame.

Also cleaned up the driveshaft and put it in.

And got the inside of the cab and the back wall coated in Por 15.I think it looks really good. Once its dry I'll lay down the seam sealer, and put down some sound deadener.

And all thats left now before the cab can go on, is putting the fuel and brake lines on!

does the oil pan or the bottom of the bell housing touch the ground when layed out? I don't see much clearance in the second picture. I'm guessing its just a bad angle because I thought you posted pictures of your sectioned pan in the last thread. Looks good though man.
