What truck really inspired you?

The Toyota in this pic was what really did itfor me. It was the first body dropped truck Igot to see in person & not in a magazine! If anybody has anymore pics of it them please post them for me!!

I've had several that were an inspiration to me and not only that but several people that did too. Danny Rowe really showed me what a great person truly is and how we all should be.

This is my current inspiration to build something nice and avoid my draw to building a patina ride.

this truck did it for me. i was sellin a go-kart and the guy that showed up to look at it and buy it showed up in this truck. it was quite a few years ago when it wasnt bodydropped but still had the badass paint on the outside. he took me for a ride in it and i was hooked. i sold my Z and bought a ranger a week later.

this is the truck that inspired me, i have always loved the look of a bagged truck and i work with this guy, if it were not for him i wouldnt have the truck i own today.

there was a kid in my hood,when i was about 12,black nissan hardbody,hammered,15"prime 5 stars,targa top,grant gt wheel,tons of bass,neon,pacesetter tip,sweet!!! was clean as hell too!

that lavender toy up there trips me out with those probe gt wheels,i remember when i wanted BIG wheels,i drilled the centers on those wheels and put them on my 91 ranger to tuck!!!

Pat Nicholls Ballistic Toyota

a local 97 s10 with a static drop on some 14" wire wheels got me into it.

One of first Minitruckin's I ever picked up (Im guessing 94/95?) had a sweet metallic pink Toy with chromed 16" Lexus wheels on it. Also, a few years later Minitruckin featured a Bagged/B.D.ed Toy with independent rear suspesion and shaved corner lights. I was blown away by that one.
