Some guy @ my highschool had a lowered s-10 blazer (87, I think) and that got me into customizing, but these two trucks are really what set it off for me:
I remember when they both showed up, they just seemed to represent a new level to me, the wheels where MASSIVE at the time hehe =)

There was a truck in MiniTruckin years and years ago (like 10) that had the doors cut in half and the bottom half was molded into the body and they were suicide. I think it had a tandem on it too (not sure). After I saw that I was really into mini's. It wasnt the nicest one ever but it was so crazy that I was hooked. Wish I could find some pics.
Ohh and there was a peach mazda extended cab on prime 15" that were painted to match, I think it had like 4 15" subs in there too. That was my first minilove.

way bring an old thread back to life guys! These minis STILL inspire us today.
The Mazda you mention is Jesus Vidro's truck. Later on, it had true gullwing doors added and was made into stretch limo. After that it kind of disappeared.

I don't have a pic and never saw the truck in person, but there was always a red single cab hardbody in the pages of minitruckin' mag. It had tri fans on it. It was used in an ad or something for the magazine, so it was in there for almost a year straight if I remember correctly. Back in the mid to late 90's.

It's funny you mention that hardbody Jeremy. I was just telling a buddy of mine about the truck. This is from Minitruckin September 1993.

That looks like it could be the one. It appears to be body dropped, just lifted up in those ads. I remember it kinda always up in the corner of the page and it was definitely body dropped.

Saw this at slamfest in 07... Inspired me to get back into slamming my burban. I was working on a coupe deville at the time.
