Mini Truck History Making Trucks

^^^ love that blue truck!!   so many memories seeing these in the mags and show coverage back in the day!   i used to have a printed photo of the white blazer from MIC taped to my binder in high school. the one with the yellow graphics and checkered flag and what not. always told everyone i'd have a bagged truck someday. they looked at me like i was fucked up and i should have been in the ratard classes.   also remember a few others that i can't find photos of......     -maroon silverado, chopped, old caddy front, big wheels, maybe a boyd ad   -red silverado, flamed wheels in some companies ad, usually in every old truckin issue   -light green isuzu, ext cab, right hand drive, 350 swap   -ernie's red mitsu, i can always remember that back window logo  

this is twisted metal it was built by bob grant went through several owners being traded and now I believe it has landed in the hands of sunset here is a link to info on it http://www.minitruckinweb.com/features/toyota/1001mt_1982_toyota_pickup_toy_blazer_twisted_metal/index.html --------------------------------------------- Yea its in =SUNSET= now. one of the members in our Australia chapter bought it at TexMex '10. th truck is staying here in the states and getting some more work done and some things changed. Hopefully we will see it more often..

What about a couple of Ryan's first ones (from West Coast Customs)?  I think he had a blue bodied blazer and a blue bodied mazda extracab.

Farfromluzen was on mautofied within the last two years,  and it was the original owner selling it.  Not sure if it sold but it was a really reasonable price for the truck.  And it was still in show condition...
