nope actually its an early model geo prizm (toyota corolla) the geo and toyota ones are a lil different i had the corolla one in my taco roadster so i figured id use the geo one this time its fits real well but with the sfbd the trans hump got in the way so it was trimmed a lil but it has to be older then 95 so theres no airbag...took me a while to find this one but not bad for a $50 mod

well i decided to put the fuse box in the cab rather then cluttering up the engine bay and modified the emblem

Looks good so far I have a rendering i did about 5 years ago, i will post it up when i get home. keep us up to date man!

looks totally awsome all the work man........ as far as the emblem on the back, i would go to a hot rod shop and have one cnc'ed out of aluminum and chrome it or just polish it to make it look like a stock emblem that would be kick ass!
scotty

yeah i found a website that makes emblems so ill get some real ones down the road that was just temporary with a paint marker .....your website didnt come up

lil progress got the hood cut to fit til i figure how i want to cover it , started getting the tops of the rear windows capped off and the door jamb fillers ...also got the steering wheel in...and my daughter standing next to her 2runner...yes its hers

looks killer man. keep up the good work. ive always been a fan of the 4runner body styled trucks lol or in your case 2 runner.

thanks hopefully monday i'll have it legit by the dmv ....they are coming to my house to watch me switch the vins from my tacoma to my 2runner so my 2runner is actually gonna still be titled as my tacoma

any updates?

its been going pretty steady just doing some of the little stuff like hooking up the engine wiring i hooked up the steering and put on some mock up bags so now i can move it around and get under it. ive also been doing the nitpick small stuff like fitting interior panels mounting rear bumper .....so at this point i want to raise the motor a little bit to keep the oil pan a lil more safe and about $1000.00 worth of new parts like new bags balljoints tierods shocks battery and windshield and side glass to get all the mock up stuff off .....then the dmv had second thoughts and now say it has to be complete then inspected for a built from parts title ...so now im just making sure the pile of removed parts in my shed are all making their way back on the runner....thanks for checking in its been heading towards completion just not much pic worthy work happening .....i got excited just seeing it raise up and down and steer now to hear that engine crank
